Marvyl was outgoing and friendly. Nobody was a stranger to her; she met and had many friends along the way. Mom loved to play piano and sing along with her sisters Grace and Joanie. Music always played a special part in all phases of her life along with Elvis. The many family events were always memorable, and stories continue to this day. Knitting and crocheting baby clothes, sweaters and blankets were among favorite pastimes as well as oil painting, Cooking and collecting recipes. Not to mention her casino visits.

She is survived by her sister Joanie, children Wendy, Tammy, Mark, Patty, and Joey. Stepchildren Micheal, Melissa, Stephen and David. Many grandchildren and great grandchildren whom she loved and cherished. Also, her nieces and nephews with whom she was very close.
