Janice, Bruce and family. Your mom was a terrific neighbor the roughly 50 years that they live nex to each other. Your Mom was so in good detecting the days that mom was having a difficult time, and truly offering emotional support. Her visits near Moms end were truly helpful for mom.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time. There is some comfort in knowing the better place our loved ones pass into, but it is still a deep loss.
We were so sorry to hear of Marvyls passing. She was such a dedicated volunteer at our Treasure Chest store. She will be dearly missed. Our thoughts prayers go out to her family.
I walked at St. Joes for years with Marvel and really enjoyed her wit. She is now walking with our Lord. My sympathy to her family.

Dear Jan, I was so sorry to hear about your Moms passing. It was always so nice to see her when I visited New Hampton. She always had a big smile and a hug for me. Some photos posted on this site brought back wonderful memories of our time as neighbors and later when I would visit you after you moved by the pool. Remember all the good times you were so fortunate to have had with her. A mothers love is with you forever. Love, Nancy Lee
Jan and Bruce, Bruce and Lori, and all Marvels Family, So very sorry to hear of the loss of your Mom. Marvel was indeed one of a kind. Living on East Main ourselves, we often saw her walking by-but, you really had to look fast. Larry walks to work most days and he always said that if he heard footsteps coming up behind him, he knew it was Marvel and she WOULD be passing him! She will be missed. You are in our thoughts and prayers! May your memories bring you peace.
