R.I.P Uncle Marvin.
We went to church with Doris for many years and came to know Marvin. He made beautiful wooden toys that he would give to the children in the congregation. They all loved their gifts from Mr. Marvin. My children are grown now but still have the toys he made them and treasure them today.
He had a kind heart and made a lot of young people feel very special.
