Dear Sharon Karon Steven and Michael
So sorry to hear about the loss of your Dad he was such a kind and loving man!!
We all loved his talks on the phone and his Christmas Cards with the notes to let us know how his life was going and what he was up to. It was so great to hear how happy he was and how much he loved where he lived!!
Our Family will forever have fond and loving memories about Mom and Dad for we knew them for 40 years!! From the minute they moved into the home next door it seemed as if we knew them forever. They were so loving to all of us and treated us like family.
We have so many beautiful and fun memories with them. Too many to count!! The birth of two of the kids,Birthdays,Holidays, Christenings and fun times in the pool!! They were like Grandparents to our children Nick, Michael and Christina!! We missed them when they moved to Tennessee but we always stayed in touch! When they traveled up to Michigan we would always spend time together! Thank you to them for all the love!
So with heavy hearts we are all sending you lots of love and prayers!
Since Marvin and Shirley moved to Lebanon with Karen, my family and I have had the treasured experience to become their friends. They became adopted grandparents of sorts to our 8 children, even spending special holiday season celebrations with us, among other ongoing visits, activities, calls and cherished memories. Most impressive to me was to watch Marvin care for Shirley and Karen in his own unique way, even during the most stressful of times and conditions. I watched him change. Although always full of goodness, I watched him become softer, kinder, gentler, more patient and forgiving and understanding of others. This beautiful transition occurred in his eighties. Having worked with the elderly all my life for the past 30 years, as a nursing home administrator, more often I see the opposite, watching many become less patient, forgiving and kind and even become bitter as the harsh conditions of aging, sickness, declining health, loneliness and even death affect so many negatively. Marvin proved differently. He showed me that joy and peace and even personal improvement can happen in ones most advancing years. Marvin found joy and shared it with others freely these past few years and I for one will be forever grateful to have known him, observed his transformation and witnessed his goodness to others. May God bless his family and dear friends with memories of his Wonderful Life.
