Marvin Cohen, age 74, of Surprise, Arizona passed away on Monday, February 7, 2022. Marvin was born February 21, 1947 in Brooklyn, New York. Marv's family moved to San Diego when he was 5 years old. He spent his childhood and college years there until he moved to Orange County, CA. Marv and Ruthie had their first date in 2000 at the Tustin Marketplace after meeting online through LA/OC Match.com. He moved to Beverlywood to where she was living and together they moved to AZ in 2004, were married in 2009 and, as they say, the rest is history.
Hawaii was one of their favorite vacation spots, early in their relationship they sailed around the Tahitian Islands and had the good fortune to take a Mediterranean cruise between Marv's treatments for pancreatic cancer and prior to the matastasis of this terrible disease to various parts of his body, including and most painfully to his bones.
He fought the good fight, was a real trooper and had a great attitude right up to the end.
Marv is survived by his spouse, Ruthie Cohen, two biological sons, Matthew and Aaron, daughters in law, Julie and Blanca and five biological grandchildren: Tyler, Kiki, Lucy, Rhianna and Reuben. He is also survived by his step children: surviving spouse of step son, Damon, Lili, step daughter Danielle and her wife, Jen, step son, Adam, and his wife, Amanda and six step grandchildren: Delilah, Jonah, Isaac, Ramey, Zachary and Shayne, all of whom he treated like his own.
Marv is also survived by two brothers: Sandy, his wife, Ellen and Rob.
