IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Marvin B.
Hein
Jan 20, 1930 — Mar 7, 2016
Obituary
Marvin B. Hein, 86, Lake Mills, died on Monday, March 7, 2016 at the Willowbrook Nursing and Rehabilitation Center surrounded by his family.
He was born on January 20, 1930 in the town of Milford, WI, the son of the late Benjamin and Clara (Steinel) Hein.
He was a graduate of the Lake Mills High School, class of 1947.
Marvin married Rachel Manske on June 17, 1950.
In his earlier years, he had been employed locally by the Lake Mills Canning Company and the Lake Mills Shoe Factory. In 2002 he had retired from almost 42 years of semi-truck driving. He had been employed by Schweiger Industries of Jefferson for 30 years delivering furniture from coast to coast, Schneider trucking, and most recently Sheehy Mail Contractors. Marv was proud of having a "perfect" driving record all those years.
He was a member of the Lake Mills Moravian Church.
He enjoyed the outdoors, fishing, splitting and stacking wood, landscaping, and loved to smoke fish.
In later years Marvin and Rachel enjoyed spending the winter months in Arizona to be close to their daughter Barb and her husband Phil.
When he wasn't working, he made the best of his time spent with family and friends.
Marv will be deeply missed by his wife of 65 years, Rachel of Lake Mills; their children, Marsha (Gregg) Fairfield of Cambridge, Greg Hein of Lake Mills, Barbara (Philip) Schlueter of Avondale, AZ; two grandsons, Shannon Fairfield of Cambridge, Bryan Fairfield of Washington; two brothers, Carroll (Kelly) Hein, Don Hein; seven sisters, Ione Larson, Mary Marshall, Pearl Christensen, Jane Moldhauer, Jean Zimmermann, Faye Dolan, Donna Powell; other relatives and friends.
He was also preceded in death by two brothers, James Hein, Phil Hein, and two sisters, Elaine Hein and Joyce Schuld.
Memorial services will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 2, 2016 at the Lake Mills Moravian Church.
Friends may call after 10 a.m. on Saturday at the church until the time of services.
Private Family Burial will be held at Rock Lake Cemetery at a later date.
Those wishing to express sympathy through donations may direct them to the Lake Mills Moravian Church or to Rainbow Hospice Care, Inc.
A heartfelt thank you from Marvin's family to the staff of Willowbrook for their loving care of Marvin.
