Marvin met his wife, June, while working in Havre de Grace, and the two married in 1980.

Their partnership was marked by devotion, laughter, and a shared love of music, the Lord and community.

Marvin was a devoted member of Wiseburg United Methodist Church and an active member of the York County Racing Club. A dedicated sports fan, Marvin took great pride in cheering for the Baltimore Orioles and the Baltimore Ravens, never missing an opportunity to support his favorite teams. His lifelong passion for racing led him to countless NASCAR races at Martinsville Speedway and Sprint Car events at both Lincoln Speedway and BAPS Speedway (formally Susquehanna Speedway) where he loved watching his favorite drivers sharing the excitement with family and friends.

Professionally, Marvin served as a skilled asphalt paver operator for about 45 years. First working for Baltimore County Roads before joining Harry T. Campbell & Sons, in Cockeysville, Maryland, which now is Martin Marietta and eventually retiring from TC Simons. His strong work ethic and commitment earned him the respect of colleagues and the community alike.

Marvin lived a life grounded in love, family, and unwavering dedication. He will be remembered for his kindness, wisdom, and steadfast support for those he cared about. His legacy continues through the generations of family who adored him.
