Marvin J. Mercier, 83, Dyckesville, passed away Thursday morning, September 8, 2022, with his family at his side. 

He was born December 17, 1938, in Dyckesville, to the late John D. and Deloris M. (DeCremer) Mercier.

On October 10, 1959, Marvin married Karen A. DeJardin at St. Francis Xavier Church in Brussels.

He served his country in the United States Army during the Berlin Crisis and was a member of the American Legion Ralph Kline Post 262 in Luxemburg.

He ran a dairy farm all his life while also working twenty-nine plus years with Wisconsin Concrete.  His enjoyments included Polka dancing, keeping the neighborhood daily watch through the window of his Kubota, sitting in his garage reading a magazine while sitting in the sun, and an occasional whiskey-coke. 

Marvin was proud of his Belgian heritage and spoke the language often.

He hosted a dry sense of humor and a quick wit; one can only imagine the conversations now held in Heaven!
