Marvin Snow Obituary

Mr. Marvin Lee Snow was born February 16, 1965 in Jacksonville, Florida to the late Marvin

Reed and Lucy M. Snow Gibson. He received his formal education in the local schools of Duval

County Public School System, graduating from Nathan B. Forrest High School in 1984.

Marvin Lee Snow, better known as "Snow", enlisted in the Army where he learned various skills,

traveled, met and formed lifelong bonds with his military buddies. Mr. Snow was blessed with

his only child, his son, Marvin Lee Marquis Snow. Upon being honorably discharged from the

Army, Marvin found his calling in the civilian world completing courses to become a licensed

barber. "Snow" was definitely meant to be a barber as he loved spirited conversation on world

views, religion, sports, and most of all, sharing knowledge. He loved family and loved to cook

and invite them over on holidays and weekends.


Mr. Marvin Snow was truly blessed with 58 fulfilling years. On November 16, 2023, God called

him from LABOR to REWARD.


He was preceded in death by his father, Marvin Reed.

Marvin leaves to cherish his memory, his only son, Marvin Lee Marquis Snow of Dallas, TX;

mother & step-father, Lucy M. Gibson (Bruce, Sr.) of Jacksonville, FL; sister, Lucidean Childress

(Dremico) of Jacksonville, FL; brothers, Bruce Gilson, Jr. (LiaHoni) of Jacksonville, FL; Marcus

Reed of Erie, PA, Shawn Reed of Erie, PA; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, other

relatives and friends.
