Marva was born on February 14th,1944 to John Ladd and Martha Miller in Mountain Home, Idaho. Marva was the oldest child out of 5. Marva had scarlet fever as a little girl which had an impact on her but never let it consume her. Marva attended school in Mountain Home where she was fond of one teacher because she gave her the best gift that she could ask for which was to read. Marva could spend hours talking about her fondness of reading. She loved hanging out with her sister Bev, they were very close. She also loved playing pranks on her family.
When Marva was 19, she moved to Emmett, Idaho where she met Joe Patterson got married and had two beautiful daughters. Joe and Marva divorced and sometime later she met William LeBlanc they were married April11th, 1981. And she gained 4 stepchildren.

She loved Cooking, cleaning, taking care of her children and husband, reading, attending church and all services that the church provided. She loved food, enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, and donating to different charities. Many years later Marva and Bill decided to start going to the Abundant Life Fellowship where she was blessed with many friends and her church family who helped her in many ways especially when Bill passed away. Marva had amazing neighbors and friends all over this town. She appreciated every one of them and would like them to know.
Marva's smile, laugh and stories will be missed greatly. Marva had a hidden gift from God which not sure if she knew it but, in any situation, she always found the good in it and always had a smile. She always knew what to say in rough times with a smile on her face. She was the glue of the family.
