MARVEL HARSHMAN

Never knew Marv but felt like I did. I´ve lived in Lake Stevens, WA for 30 years plus and my father was friends with his buddy Jud Heathcote.

As I age I feel more and more respect for Marv as a person and as a coach. He really did nurture me as a small city boy from Anaconda, MT. I couldn't have chosen a better place to play basketball as a result of his ability to teach the game and help me as a person.

One of the kindest persons I have had the privilege of knowing. I was so blessed to have him as a mentor and coach. Go with God Marv.

I met the Harshman family when I started attending Bethel Lutheran Church in 1950:I was five. Dorothy's father, Reverend E. Arthur Larson was the minister and I grew up knowing them and their three sons. Theirs was a wonderful family, full of love and caring and craziness. I remember Marv as a big teddy bear, always smiling and a gentle, but firm, man. He will be missed, but he's now with his beloved wife and son now. God be with the family and may they be sustained by warm memories

I had the pleasure of being a teammate of Marv's on the first PLC Baseball Team an have very fond memories of those days in i941. Marv was an outstanding athlete and coach
but I remember him as a very kind and caring person.

Me love Dorothy and Coach. They are and were the best.
We were so greatful to have that special time with them after my folks best away. They were family to us and treated us as they did all-special and with love. See you all at the memorial tribute at U. of W. Sherry & Stan Normile Isenhath

My dad, Andrew Karlin, was friends with Marv. He always had such good things to say about him. Dad passed away last May 22, 2012. I'm sure he would want us to pass on our prayers and condolences to the Harshman family.

Marv Harshman - It was an honor to get to know Marv, Dorothy, David and Michael. The best family!!
