Not sure what to say?

I will always remember Marvin as a good and helpful friend who I met through Historians against the War. He was such a good historian and so committed to social justice and left-wing politics. Plus he was a lot of fun to be around.

Great work on Vietnam. Thank you.

A good comrade. He will be missed.

Sorry to hear this I'll miss him. I was his editor on the first Vietnam book.
