When his nation called, Marvin answered by joining the Army, serving in
Japan Occupational Forces. Afterward, he returned to his passion of raising,
breeding, and showing Champion Hereford Cattle, winning many awards
over his distinguished career. After many years of being the herdsman of
several large cattle ranches, he made a career change joining AAL, now
known as Thrivent Financial, where he experienced a successful second
career selling insurance until his retirement. Marvin’s retirement years were
spent turning his hobby into a business through the buying, selling, and
framing of limited edition art. In his free time, he loved to listen to the radio,
