Dear Mrs. Taub and family, It was good to be at the service today. The readings and sharing of story's by Diane, was so true of Marvin! He was a dear friend that I will remember for his patience, positive out look, willingness to help, his smile and laugh! During the reading of the 23rd psalm, I looked up and smile came to my face as I saw the most perfect cloud formation of a Huge Heart right over us, that stayed and dissipated only after the reading! It reminded me so much of Marvin, a Big man with a Big Heart for all who knew him! Marvin was on my mind the past few weeks and I did not follow through with the prompting to call on him. I will forever regret that, may we all remember to enjoy our friends and family's while we can .... Thank you Mrs. Taub for the gift you gave the world with Marvin, I'm glad that I was blessed to know him! I will not soon forget Marvin and pray I can be half the man he was!

My prayers go out to you all!

What a great man Marvin was. What a fighter! His battle is over now. He leaves behind lots of memories for his friends. I am so glad I got to hug him the last time I saw him. Marvin was one of the few friends I can say I loved dearly. I am so going to miss him making appearances and making my day.

My most sincere condolences to the entire Taub family & friends. Marvin fought a horrifically long battle no one should ever have to endure. May he rest in the peace he has so rightfully earned, tho he was taken from you much too young.

Marvin was an important and loved part of our lives and our family. We shared good times...and bad, dreams...and regrets, and hope and visions of our children's futures. But mostly, we just spent our time together having fun and laughing. Marvin's gifts to us are precious memories of his generous kind heart, his beautiful smile, and his amazingly quick wit. We will miss our friend more than words can say.
