The Marvin Romaine Christensen Family

Marvin was born soon after his mother had Typhoid Fever, and they had told her that she would never have any more children. Marvin was a real surprise and a great blessing. His mother worried about him, but he was very healthy. Marvin was born in Spanish Fork, Utah on August 31, to Einer and Rebecca Christensen.

As a young boy he herded cows and did the thing all farm boys do growing up. One day while herding cows a sheep herd went by and an old sheep stayed so Einer told Marvin he could keep her. By the time he graduated from High School he had a small herd of sheep.

Marvin was drafted in World War II, his mother never thought he would pass the physical and she was shocked when he did. Marvin never got a furlough to come home until he was released at Christmas time in 1945.

Marvin was dating Maxine’s girlfriend and there were twelve girls who wanted to meet each other’s boyfriends so they all went to a dance and that is when Maxine met Marvin in October and got married on June 11, 1947.

Marvin worked at Geneva Steele for 37 years and then retired. He continued to farm for many years. Now he is retired from farming but still keeps busy doing yard work. He has Diabetes but he is doing great and takes really good care of his health and the Doctor told his daughter Rebecca he wished all of his patients were as healthy.

Maxine Roberts Christensen was the oldest of six children and her mother taught her everything that she knows. She says that both of her parents were great and taught her to be a good person. When Maxine was eleven years old her mother had a nervous breakdown and she and her siblings had to live with relatives for two years. Her father bought a home in Springville, Utah and alone and with Maxine’s he raised his six children. Some of Maxine’s relatives worried about the kids while her father was gone all day. Social Services came to check on them. The House was clean, the kids were clean, and Maxine was baking bread and reading to her younger sister and brothers. The people from Social Services stated that they knew adults who did not do near as good as she did.

Marvin and Maxine met at a dance and fell in love. She stated that after she was married to Marvin her sister and her brothers came and stayed with them during the summer.

They have six wonderful children who are all grown up. They have 27 Grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren. Maxine stated that she loved being a stay at home mom and raising her children, Kathy, Nanette, Randy, Pamela, Rebecca and Calvin.

Marvin and Maxine love living in LakeShore, Utah where they have lived for the past 45 years. Life has been really great for them and they are very thankful to god for many blessings and they both feel that they have been blessed their whole life. They feel that they have received more blessing than they can count.
