Peggy Robbins wrote a sympathy message

“We are so sorry to about Marvin's passing. He was amazing. Even this year, I saw him out on the riding mower. He never gave up trying to keep a perfect yard (even though Mark had already mowed)! He was always kind and friendly, even though he couldn't hear. He was such a nice man, and we will miss him. Our deepest sympathies to the family, and especially to Louise.”
