Celebration of life for Chuck Marr

Submitted by Christy A Dipman

Chuck Marr

Chuck Marr, emeritus professor of horticulture and natural resources, will be remembered at a celebration of life service at 2 p.m. Saturday, April 12, at the College Avenue United Methodist Church, 1609 College Avenue, Manhattan, KS. A reception in Fellowship Hall will follow.

Marr dedicated a large part of his life to vegetable and fruit production. With that in mind and in lieu of flowers, the Marr family will have a bouquet of vegetables and fruits on the altar table. Attendees are invited to bring a fresh vegetable or fruit, which will be collected in baskets at the sign-in table at both the north and south entrances. This fresh produce will be donated to Common Table, a free meal program in our community that feeds the hungry.
