Darboy - Marv Lamers, age 88, died Thursday, May 24, 2018. He was born and raised in Little Chute, Wisconsin, to the late Edward H. Lamers and Anne (Ebben) Lamers. Marv was a 1949 graduate of St. John's Little Chute High School. He was drafted into the Marine Corps when he was 23, proudly served his country for 4 years, and was a member of the Jacob Coppus American Legion Post 258.
Marv's previous employers include Western Condensing, the Starlite Club, EZ Glide Garage Door and the former Thilmany Pulp & Paper Mill in Kaukauna, where he retired in 1991 after 24 years.
Marv is survived by his wife, Marian "Mickey" (Van Handel) Lamers, whom he married in October 1958. In addition to his wife, Marv is survived by his children: Karla Schmitt, Jeff (Lynn) Lamers, Mark Lamers, Judy (Jeff) Martin, Steve Lamers, Nancy Lamers, Gary (Tracy) Lamers, Patsy (Brian) Van Camp, Peggy (Tim) Aerts, and Jill (Randy) Sprangers. He is further survived by a sister, Rita Gorchals; and a brother Vern (Mary Jo) Lamers. Marv is the proud grandfather of 27 grandchildren and 12 ½ great grandchildren. If you know Marv and Mickey, you also know that the Van Handel family is very large. With that in mind, Marv is further survived by countless members of Mickey's family as well as nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
