We mourn the loss of our dear father, Thomas Marvin, who passed away on April 2, 2025, at the age of 84. He faced life's challenges with grace and resilience.
He was born in the summer of 1940 to parents Tom and Bernice Marvin. He was one of seven children. Joan, Thomas, Betty Lee, Diana, Sharon, Karen, and Linda.
In 1960 he married Patsy Marvin, and they had three children Tommy, Leona, and April.
He was a man of integrity and a true inspiration to us all. He worked circles around men half his age. He was out feeding cows his last day here. He was generous beyond compare, and incredibly proud of every accomplishment his family made. He was a man of many talents including restoring vintage cars, he could build anything, play guitar, and was an avid gun collector. His greatest passion however was his family, who he would've done anything for. His strength and spirit will be deeply missed.
Preceded in death by his grandsons Chris Hadley and Ty Marvin.
Survived by son Tommy & wife Susan Marvin, grandchildren Derek Marvin, Ashlee Marvin, Spouse Beau Shaw, Kenli & Husband Ty Worley and Tate Marvin. Great grandchildren Shyanne Marvin, Brayden Orozco, Ryder & Tomi Lynn Shaw.
Daughter Leona Bryson, grandchildren Leigh Ann & spouse Sam Heaton, Tanner & spouse Logan Hirsch, Layne & spouse Morgan Bryson. Great grandchildren Lexi Menke, Aiden Heaton, Logan Heaton, Hunter Heaton & Laney (Hadley) Brown.
Daughter April & husband Larry Mounce, grandchildren Tayler & spouse Edgar Caldera, Skyler & spouse Caleb Royal. Great grandchildren Ej Caldera & Remi Royal.
