Marv was born on April 10, 1938 at her grandma’s house in Blue Earth, MN to Herman and Florence (Klatt) Loge. She graduated in 1956 from Frost High School. Shortly after graduation, she started her most memorable job of switch board operator at the Frost Telephone Office. She met and fell in love with Arnold Karge and the couple was married on June 17, 1956 at United Lutheran Church, Frost. From this union, they were blessed with 4 children. Family became and continued to be the focus of her life. Her devotion to her family was obvious to anyone who knew her. Her special talents always lied in gift giving, such as baking kringla for loved ones and making family gatherings extra special with her often requested potato salad. She was the rock of her family, providing the strength and support to everyone. She always put family first. To her, family was everything.

Marv is survived by her children Susie (Bob) Loge, Kathy (DJ) Anderson, and David (Melodie) Karge; 12 grandchildren; 22 great grandchildren; sisters Hermina Folven, Sandy (Gerald) Urban, Lynette (Juel) Merseth; brother Marlyn (Kathy) Loge; and many special nieces and nephews. 

She is preceded in death by her husband Arnie, son Steve, her parents, her parents-in-law, sister Dona Matheson, brother Loren Loge, sister-in-law Linda Loge, brothers-in-law Carlyle Matheson, Don Folven; and nephews Gary Folven and Matt Loge.
