He is survived by his loving wife Teresa whom he called his second marital gift from God; his daughters, Carol Ouzts and her husband Larry, and Cindy Kay Hitchings; his grandchildren who were his pride and joy, Emily Ouzts Evans (Jerry) and Larry Ouzts, Jr. (Rachel); and seven precious great-grandchildren. Also left to cherish his memory are two sisters, Mildred and Hazel; five brothers, Raymond, Earle, Bobby (Georgia), Jimmy (Deborah), and Phil (Marie).

He was a member of Suburban Christian Church for 40 years during which he served as Chairman of Official Board and Trustee Committee. He was an avid sports fan; his greatest love was golf and his two Hole-in-one’s were his proudest achievements.
Marvin was a veteran of WWII serving as a Boatswain’s Mate on LST 352 and LST 1002 first in the Mediterranean and later upon transfer to the Pacific in the Okinawa and Iwo Jima Campaigns.
After the war, he continued to serve in his professional career with the Federal Civil Service at Norfolk NAS. He worked under the Naval Air Systems Command in the Real Estate Division until he retired on February 10, 1979.
