Marvin, what a guy. A great neighbor in our Johnson community. Helped our family on many occasions with his welding skills. From welding bridge runners on our private road crossing to fabricating the door latch post on my old car, he could do it all. As a young teenager hanging out at his shop was all a kid could want. I was there enough that I seem to remember being hired for a Saturday or two to push a broom just so I wasn't standing over his shoulder.
Gonna miss ya old friend, see ya soon.
