I knew him as Uncle Mo from babysitting Kira-May, I was lucky enough to meet him a few times and he was always such a nice man. I know he thought the world of Kira-May and she thought the world of him. Aunt Lawonna I'm so sorry for your loss, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Marvin was a great man. He was a very good employee who focused on doing the right things at work. We certainly needed more Carmen like Marvin.

Homer and I are truly saddened to hear of Marvin's passing. He truly will be missed. His laughter and history stories are very vivid in our minds, and we so enjoyed the two evenings he and the boys spent with us here in Florida on their way back from the Florida Keys. Our prayers are with Lawanna and the entire family, and we are here if anyone should need us. Our doors are always open. Know that his mark on this life is great through all the family history he researched and shared. He will forever be in our hearts.

Lawonna,
I was so sad to hear of Mo's passing. When Amanda and I would come to your house with the boys for any kind of get together he always was so kind to us and loved talking about the military with me. My prayers are with you all.
