Marvel was a loving wife, mother, homemaker and friend. Her door was always open and there was always room for one more. She loved to cook and her recipes are legendary. Marvel lead the Lively Pixies 4-H Club and loved teaching the domestic arts to over 50 girls that resulted in many blue ribbons at the DuPage County Fair. Marvel enjoyed fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, quilting, canning, cake decorating, and lawn-chair weaving. She loved traveling, but the best part of the trip was always coming home. Marvel loved her Country. She thoroughly enjoyed Musicals, Lawrence Welk, Polka Music and dancing. Marvel was beautiful both inside and out. She was truly loved and will be missed by all.
