Not sure what to say?

When I first came to Nellis I worked F-5's White Section and was trained by Jimmy Ide, who was trained by Marvin Ealey, so you can say I was trained by both of them. I learned so much from them it was a strong base for my whole career! Years later I ran into Marvin up on the range and we shot the breeze about, Jimmy, our careers, and all kinds of things for some time. He was such a great guy, I knew then why Jimmy had spoken so highly of him.
My condolences to his family, he will...

Marv was a great Red Eagle - and a great guy. His contributions to our nation’s security - both during and after his Air Force career - were immense. My condolences - Mike ‘Scotty’ Scott, Red Eagle.

Marvin was our friend and colleague. He always had a smile on his face and his laugh was contagious. He was a mentor to me (Rolly) and we worked for 28 years. Kim and I will miss him.

Rest In Peace

I miss you "Bub" but I love you more.

I was married to him for almost 45 years, and he was honestly a good man. Catch you on the flip side Ealey.

Rest in peace Marvin.
