Facebook Twitter GoogleMarvin was my favorite from the bus garage. He was always genuine and caring. He later became a favorite to our whole family. He will be sadly missed. Prayers for your whole family.

Facebook Twitter GoogleWe loved Marvin and Billie. They were such wonderful neighbors to us. I remember the weeks before my back surgery when I couldn’t walk, Marvin would bring me breakfast sandwiches and brighten my day. Marvin was so very special. I don’t think there was a kinder person. May God bless your family at this time Susan and Joe Ruch
