Raymond Marvin Card passed from this life into the presence of Jesus in the early morning hours of April 22, 2021, in Garrison, Texas. He was born to Raymond Clarence and Lometa Louise (Armor) Card of Soddy-Daisy, Tennessee on January 31, 1941, and was 80 years old at the time of passing.
Marvin graduated from Soddy-Daisy High School, then entered Tennessee Tech, where he received a B.A. in Business. He married Geraldene Loftis while in college and became the father of Melysa Lei while completing his education.
Marvin is survived by his beloved wife, Kathleen.
He is also survived by his daughter, Melysa Lei (Card) Higgins; grandchildren, Kristopher Randolph and wife Katie, Dustin Randolph, Breanna (Bussell) Williams and husband Desmond (who is now deceased); sisters, Charmaine Louise (Card) Layton and Rosemary Lometa (Card) Schreiner; brother, Gary Armor Card and wife Betty; and great-grandchild, Micah Williams. There will also be two great-grandchildren born later in 2021: Geraldene Rosemary Randolph to Kris and Katie Randolph, and Desmond Williams to Breanna and the late Desmond Williams. Mr. Card is additionally survived by a number of nieces, nephews, cousins, and many friends.
Marvin was deeply loved and was especially appreciated for the Christian example he set as he lived out his life. He will be greatly missed.
