On behalf of the Hootman Family and my father John, we wish to express our sadness to Millie, Debbie and Tony, in Marvin’s passing. He was a great neighbor and friend to John and Carol over the many years they both resided on Lake Winnebago. He was a kind man with a wonderful sense of humor. I will remember how easily he laughed and the special visit he and Millie paid us this past summer at the lake. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Bonnie Hootman Fisher

My most sincere sympathies to Millie, Deb and Tony at this difficult time. Everyone knows that Marvin was a great guy, he always had a smile on his face and was full of good jokes and one liners. I always enjoyed seeing him and Millie in the past at weddings and other family get togethers. He will truly be missed.
