Marvin was a US Army veteran and fought for his country, serving as a Chemical Corps Engineer, in Vietnam. He enjoyed watching NASCAR and spending time at the Talladega Short Track. Marvin was best known for his "cut-off blue jeans" and if you knew him, you know you could find him at the Short Track dedicating his time to the pit crew he was part of, which he greatly loved. Marvin retired from Huron Valley Steel as a Magnetics Supervisor and enjoyed being with his family in his spare time. He was a wonderful father, grandfather, and friend, and will be greatly missed.
