11. Marvin 13/June/1925

Marvin drove school bus and sharpened lawnmower blades for years. He worked for the Hormel hog slaughtering plant in Austin, Mn. as a mechanic for over 40 years. When he retired he operated a repair shop out of his home. His wife Kathleen (Katy) was a homemaker and worked 25 years as a cook for the Austin, Mn. school system. Marvin was another of the brothers who built their own camper and played the guitar and harmonica for our camping entertainment and family get togethers. He is the one we report to when there is a death or wedding in the family and he takes care of rounding up the family to attend. His wife Katy is a family historian who has kept all wedding pictures and obituaries of all the family members and without who my genealogy pursuits would have ever been attempted. I owe much to her and her daughter Cozette for putting all of this stuff together.
