Marvin worked hard all of his life. He quit school at an early age and went to work as a ranch hand, fibbing about his age in order to get a driver’s license. He was a self-taught mechanic and welder and had worked for Feinberg’s in Fort Madison for a number of years. The majority of his life was spent as an over the road truck driver, logging in millions of miles while traveling the nation.

He enjoyed reading and studying the scriptures, watching western movies, his trains and was a huge John Wayne fan.
