They attended different colleges, but did not lose touch. While growing up in Loveland, Co. Carma spent summers working with her sisters as a maid for the family’s cabins at the top of Big Thompson Canyon leading into Estes Park. Her father had built the first cabins for rent in that area. Later the family had their own cabin in Estes Park which was enjoyed by her brother and sisters families for over fifty years. Carma went to Colorado Teachers College and Marvin attended Colorado State University on a track scholarship. WWII separated them again when Marvin and his brothers volunteered for the Air Force following Pearl Harbor. Two years later the high school sweethearts were married during a 10-day R & R from the war. They went to the Army – Navy football game during their honeymoon, before Marvin returned to the war. Carma came home and worked as a bookkeeper hoping for Marvin (aka Murf) to return from the war. They didn’t see each other for the next 18 months. After the war, Marv graduated in Forestry from CSU and they moved to Missoula, MT with the U.S.
