Tropic, Utah- Marvin Mont Shakespear, Jr. returned to his Heavenly Father November 15, 2010 in Cedar City.
He was born September 18, 1946 in Panguitch, to Rella Ott and Marvin Mont Shakespear Sr. He was married and divorced. Marvin grew up in Tropic and graduated from Bryce Valley High School where he had many good friends.
After graduation he worked at various jobs, mainly construction at the Kaibab sawmill, and others; but his favorite was as a horse wrangler. For years he worked for Paul Mangum at the Bryce, Zion and Grand Canyon trail rides. He also worked the trail rides at Ruby's Inn until his health failed him.
Marvin had a fun personality. He should have been a stand-up comedian. He had a quick wit and kept his family, friends and co-workers entertained. He never met a stranger, everyone was his friend.
He belonged to the LDS Church and had a strong testimony of his Savior, Jesus Christ. He gained this testimony from being outdoors among God's creations.
Marvin is survived by his daughters: Jessica Johnson, Josie Pullis and Sharley Shultz; four grandchildren; his dear mother, Rella Alvey; brothers and sisters: Florence (MonDell) Syrett, Carole (Larry) Cloward, Sonia (Lynn) Allen, Gayla Jean (Steve) Hales, Kenneth (Ida) Alvey, Afton (Frank) Branch, Kim (Marie) Alvey and Kerry (Jo Neil) Alvey; and many nieces and nephews. Also survived by his little princesses, Madison, Reagan, Haven, and Shandi Syrett whom he loved very much and who visited him nearly every day. They will miss him so much.
He is preceded in death by his father, and stepfather, Royal Alvey.
Funeral services will be held Saturday, November 20, 2010 at 12:00 Noon in the Tropic Ward Chapel where friends may call from 10:00 - 11:30 a.m. Burial will be in the Tropic Cemetery.
Funeral Directors: Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti.
Marve's family would like to give a special thank you to the nurses and staff at the Garfield Memorial Hospital Extended Care for their kindness and care they have given to Marve in past years, and to the nurses and doctors at Valley View Medical Center for the loving care they gave him at his passing.
