Marvin was truly a man after God´s own heart! He served rather than be served.Taught the word of God to bring others to Christ! Truly a light in the darkness! What joy knowing he is seeing the face of God and one day we will reunite with Marvin!

Marvin and Ruth were true friends at a difficult time after our retirement from Ft Benning. From the days with United way to building the museum his friendship, guidance and financial support made a major difference in the success we enjoyed. Thank you Marvin and rest in peace my friend!

My late mama Erika (Sam) Fleming worked for many years for Mr Schuster. at the Macon Road Burger King restaurant. Mrs Ruth used to babysit me and my brother Marcus while mom worked there. Such good memories. We are thinking of you all in this difficult time. May the good lord bless you all and watch over you.
