Marvin owned and operated his own dental practice for nearly 30 years, until his retirement in 1983. In his retirement he enjoyed outdoor activities with his wife Martha at his farm in Canfield. When not working on his farm Marvin and Martha along with close friends travelled the country in Marvin's prized GMC motor home. He also was an active participant at the Canfield Fair dental booth for more than 35 years. Marvin served his country proudly in the United States Army as a dentist and Captain. He attended the Pleasant Grove United Presbyterian Church of Youngstown, and was a member of the Corydon Palmer Dental Society, the American Dental Association, and the VFW post 14000 and 15036.

Marvin will be deeply missed by his two sons James (Carol) Swartz, John (Patricia) Swartz and granddaughter Jennifer (Chris) Bachelder and two great grandchildren Paxton and Natasha Bachelder. A private service will be held for Marvin at a later date. In lieu of flowers the family suggests that memorial tributes be made to Fellows Riverside Gardens, 123 McKinley Ave., Youngstown, OH 44509.
