Marvin Friedman

Marvin Friedman was born in Kansas City, Missouri, the son of the late David and Charlotte Friedman of Overland Park, Kansas. He was the loving husband of his wife, Vivienne, and father of two daughters, Melissa (Howard) Fear of Arvada, Colorado, and Janice (Stewart) Gritz of Yardley, Pennsylvania. Marvin is survived by four grandsons: David Gritz, Isaac Gritz, Samuel Gritz, Cameron Fear and great-grandson Sebastian Gritz.

Marvin served proudly in the United States Navy at the end of WWII and during the Korean War. After the war, Marvin, Vivienne, and their daughters settled in Boulder, Colorado. Marvin spent seven years in the furniture manufacturing business in Denver, Colorado. He then worked as a Senior Principal Industrial Engineer at Rocky Flats for 22 years before retiring in 1988. Upon retirement, Marvin and Vivienne moved to Laguna Hills, California, where they lived for 18 years before moving to Langhorne, Pennsylvania, and finally to Anns Choice in Warminster, Pennsylvania.

Marvin had an active lifestyle and enjoyed playing tennis, golf, hiking, and traveling with his wife and daughters. Together, they built a mountain cabin in Dillion, Colorado, where they went skiing and fishing. Marvin had many talents: he had a witty sense of humor, he was a craft jeweler, a ceramic artist, an award-winning karaoke star, an expert negotiator, and above all a loving father, grandfather, great-grandfather and husband.
