I am sorry for your loss. I remember when Marvin would substitute drive on my bus route years ago. I could never put my finger on what it was, but there was something very special about him. If I had to guess, it was his friendly smile and cheery disposition, but I think it was more than that. Even to this day I have fond memories of him. The world has lost a very special person.

My sympathies to the family. Mr. Scranton was my 8th grade teacher in '62-63 at New Boston(Westmer Jr. High) and I had contact with him through the years. His sister, Mrs. Bryant, was also a friend, and I had her child in school, as I came back to Westmer to teach for 34 years. He was a very nice person and a pleasure to know, and will be missed. My prayers to all.

Ellen,
We are so sorry for your loss We have so much respect and admiration for Marc. It was an hinor to have known him. The two of you brought such a great experience for both Danielle and Kyle through love through understanding and loved him as their bus driver. Our grandson Kanon adored him as his bus driver. They must have had slot of good conversations according to Kanon. I especially enjoyed meeting him with ditches and Murphy I know he touched so many lives

My deepest condolences. I've known Marv since I was a kid working at Pinks'. He always greeted me with a smile and was genuinely interested in what I had been doing. He will be missed. Sending prayers for family and friends during this difficult time.
