Marvin Allen Graham
It is with the deepest sadness that we inform you of the death of Marvin Allen Graham, who passed away in Denver, Colorado on March 7th, 2022 at age 74. It was said that he made three great decisions in his life, his love for his wife, to have children, and his love for his God.
Marvin was a great lover of music and when it came to people he never met a stranger and though he did not help everyone there is no one he would not help. Quick to act on any decision he made but was never in any hurry to make a decision. One even noted that he saw the world with hearts in his eyes. He started life in west Texas where he attended Midland High School. Marvin joined the army and was a member of the 7th army, company C, 440 signal battalion which was stationed in Germany. After the army he attended Sul Ross State University and earned his degree. He worked for Massey Ferguson and taught Diesel mechanics at South Plains College in his younger years, but made a career with British petroleum.
Marvin liked to travel and loved the outdoors. While he was fond of many places his home was always where his family was. He enjoyed animals as if they were people and enjoyed gardening and tinkering with the many projects around his home. He loved Pecan trees as much as he loved pecan pie but always with ice cream! He also loved German chocolate cake! Marvin (Rio Lobo) was an active member for the single action shooting society. He was an active member of the Broken Arrow Masonic Lodge #243. and an active member of Forest Ridge Baptist Church.
