1967 I graduated from high school. I'm black. I went to a shipping and receiving dock that summer before College. And got a job working on the dock loading and unloading trucks and I was in the teamsters. Only black on the dock. But they treated me well. 1967 I was making $7 an hour that was a lot of money back then and I was only 18 years old. When I was about to quit they wrote me a beautiful letter as a reference. They told me that I can take that letter anywhere around the country and I could get a job. I'm sorry I love me some Teamsters

i love listening to Marvin and he remembers everything the smackin of his lips even works somehow i love this guy

Very well done, Marvin has a sharp memory.

I could listen to him for hours. And the lip smacking, well that’s something lots of older people do. Be careful what you say about it cause one day you just might be a lip smacked too!

His mind is sharp as a whip... The things he's seen and heard is crazy. Him and George Chuvalo used to come by the service station I used to work at and just go on and on with funny stories. George is a kind sweet gentleman with massive hands! Marvin and George are together all the time. I'm glad to have met the two of them!

Being so safety cautious, it would have taken a very trusted person to get to Jimmy Hoffa.

I am a Mafia Historian when I first saw Marvin he was doing a peace on the biography of Paul Volpe the Fox.

Popa Doc Devala was a partner an Dictator at the time an I taught wow this Marvin knows some big gangsters. This man Marvin Elk ind knows every major person who are famous or infamous from 1950 to well over the 2000s. Also every thing this man says is 100% truth can you imagine being Jimmy Hoffa driver I would of loved to live his life it real is something else
