The I.C. Norcom Class of 1970 would like to extend our condolences and offer our prayers of comfort and strength to Marvin's children and family. A lot of us were together a year ago for a class event. Marvin had us laughing then, as he did when we were in high school. He will truly be missed at our reunion next year!
