Marlin was born in Marietta, Ohio in 1935 to Clarence and Mildred Icenogle.

He was transferred to Oregon where he eventually became the head of Northwest Operations until his retirement.

He was an avid mountain climber with the Mazamas where he earned the Sixteen Peaks Award, led climbs and served as president. He rock climbed and hiked all over the Cascades. He simply loved sports.
