  11. I will never forget the first time I met Marv. He had just got done cleaning off our sidewalk with his AC tractor. While doing this, he ran over our mail box and he was so mad at himself for doing it. I told him it was no big deal. He would have none of that talk. He had a replacement on our doorstep before the end of the day. I spent the next 12 years or so trying to keep my lawn looking as nice as his, later find out it was just easier to go over and have a seat on the deck and have a cup of coffee. What a great neighbor and friend he was to my family. My family is praying for peace and comfort for Mom and all the kids.

  14. Our sympathies to Darlys and family…. back in the late 50’s and early 60’s …Marv would be at Bud Strike’s house discussing tank wagon business with him. Stu and I would come in and those two just had a ball teasing and picking on us. Who knew that sixty-some years later it would still be going on ( I did get a little better at giving it back) but somehow … I get the feeling …. He left this world one ahead of me. I’m going to miss having a chance to get even !! R.I.P. Marv
