Stanley Marin

Stanley Anton Marin, 94, of Rushford MN, passed away on Friday, September 5, 2025.

With a heart as generous as his hands were hardworking, Stanley Marin, age 94, of Rushford, passed away peacefully at home on September 5, 2025 surrounded by the love of his devoted son and resilient daughter. Just as he wished, riding his four-wheeler one last time – on a journey straight to the arms of his beloved wife, Marcy who passed shortly before him. Stanley was one of three children to Albert and Clara Marin. He and his wife, Marcy, shared 72 years of marriage and raised their 4 children together on their family farm.

Stanley poured his heart into his farm, rising with the sun and tending his fields with the same care and commitment he showed to his friends and neighbors. He was always quick to lend a hand and give freely of what he had. His generosity extended far beyond his farm. Stanley was a man who believed in community, and he never hesitated to help others.

He was an active member of St Johns Lutheran Church, serving on several church and farming committee boards. A proud Army veteran and devoted farmer, he spent his life serving his country, nurturing the land, and caring for those around him. Stanley lived a life defined by generosity, hard work, and service that will continue to inspire those he leaves behind.

He is survived by his son Glen, daughter Cindy (David Howe), daughters-in-law Patty Marin (Jerry), Kelly Marin (Doug), 10 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren who will forever carry his love and lessons in their hearts. He is preceded in death by his parents, his sisters and his cherished sons, Doug and Jerry.

Stanley will be remembered as a man of the soil and of service, and as the man who always said “You gotta have a laugh”.

A Funeral will be held at 11am, on Thursday, September 11, 2025 at St. John's Lutheran Church in Hart. Visitation will be held Wednesday, September 10, 2025 from 4-7pm at Hoff Funeral Home in Rushford, and will continue one hour prior to service at the church.
