Marv, you were an incredible person and brother to know...always positive no matter what life threw your way; always smiling with those striking blue eyes especially when talking about your family and fishing. May the Lord bless you with the wholeness of your spiritual body and keep you as our families' Guardian Angel. Love you, Ruth & Les Patten
