Marvin lived a simplistic life. He was smooth, laid back, and kept his appearance neat and classy. He was known for his sharp creases, and sparkling white Converses. Marvin would walk everywhere and he enjoyed his Thunderbird. He loved to walk over town to play his lottery and socialize with all those he would see. If a lady caught his eye, he would be sure to say “Hey puss”. Everyone knew that was his favorite saying. When at home, he loved to watch old classic Western movies and Law and Order.
