Marvin was by far one the best friends and mentors I've had in my lifetime. I truly enjoyed working around his place and all the great stories he had to tell. He will be dearly missed

Marvin West was a person I liked and admired. He loved the land. He rented 80 acres from me and took very good care of it before passing it on to his son Jim. Before that he patched fences with my dad. It is hard to imagine the Moorefield area without him. He will be remembered and missed for the rest of my life.
