He was born at home in Seattle WA on September 4, 1921, the sixth son of William and Ida Congdon Waley. Marv completed high school and attended the University of Washington on the GI Bill after serving in the US Army with the 45th Infantry Division as a medical aid man from 1940 to 1945 in campaigns in Australia and New Guinea. Marv worked as an artist and draftsman for many architectural, manufacturing and aerospace firms in California and Washington before retiring in 1982 and devoting his time to his interests in photography, gourmet cooking, pencil and pen and ink drawing, and community theatre. Beginning in the 1950's with the prestigious Santa Monica Theatre Guild and other groups in California and continuing at the Driftwood Players and many groups in the Seattle area, Marv acted, directed, designed and produced numerous plays. Here in Spokane he appeared at Spokane Civic Theatre and with other groups and was a founding member of Rogue Players which played at the West Central Community Center from 1988 to 1996. Marv was married in 1953 to Rosemary Beckley and they had three children. Marv is survived by his second wife, Janis Clarke Waley at home, son Cole Waley of Auburn WA, daughters Rebecca Byrne of New Market AL and Valerie Waley of Spokane WA, grandson Colby Waley of Puyallup WA, and granddaughter Lisa Byrne of Anchorage AK. A celebration of Marv's life will be held on Saturday, May 30, at the Red Lion Hotel at the Park, Skyline Ballroom at 2:00 pm. All who knew Marv are welcome to attend.
