He married Norma Jeanne Railsback on July 25, 1959, in Shellsburg, Iowa, at the Lutheran Church. Marv was a hard worker. At 16 years old, Marv’s first job was for the Railroad. Next, he moved to Peter Pan Bakery. Marv then worked for Iowa Manufacturing as a machine burner. Following a layoff, he worked at both Downey Box and National Oats. Marv began working for Rockwell Collins when it was still Collins Radio in the 1960's. He was a machinist in the model shop and worked closely with engineers. Marv also worked on machine parts for NASA, handling key components for our first trip to the moon! At 55 years old, he retired after 33 years with Rockwell. Marv always loved semis, and went on to acquire his Class A CDL from Kirkwood. He drove semis for Dale Peterson of Evergreen Landscape Supply Co, a very close friend of 20 years. Marv retired on October 29, 2015. He was a member of Zion Lutheran Church of Missouri Synod and IBEW 1362. Marv and his wife Norma loved riding horses together. Marv’s horse, Flash, was his favorite riding companion for many years. After their horse riding years ended, Marv and Norma enjoyed driving semis together for Evergreen Landscaping. Marv is survived by his wife, Norma Jeanne Elson of Cedar Rapids; daughter, Kathy (Corey) Elson-Baker of Cedar Rapids; son, Ricky Elson of Springville; five grandchildren, Jessica, Arron, Ezekiel, Keaton, and Simon; two great-grandchildren; sister, Bonnie Murphy; and niece, Sue Wesely.
