Marvin Gene “Spaz” Corbin, 54, of Ripley, passed away at 6:28 PM, Saturday, May 19, 2018, at his home.

He was born on June 11, 1963, in Rushville, Illinois, the son of Larry Eugene and Velma Faye (Moore) Corbin.  He married Diane Rose Lung on May 9, 1982, in Mt. Sterling and she survives.

Spending time with his family, watching his grandson grow into an adult, long motorcycle rides with his wife, seeing his daughter smile and helping others in any way he could were his favorite things to do.
