Many of you know Marvin Lau. aka Shicken, who has been dealing with cancer for several years. Unfortunately, no treatments were successful beating back the cursed disease.
Marvin has always produced the most delicious BBQ and homemade pizass.
Marvin would hope that his friends could kindly send him cards. It is very difficult for him to reply via text or Facebook or answer the phone. His address is:
Marvin Lau 1870 11th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122.

Damn, so sorry to hear. Saw him at Jason’s hookup at HMB a few months ago.
Sad news :smt009
-
This breaks my hart to hear this!
Living outside the group has its advantages, but at times like these I wish I was closer. Thank you for keeping us posted and please let him know how much he is loved.
Stay strong my friend

Ooh my, I was hoping for better news.

Very sad. Marvin is a kind and generous man. He will always be a cherished friend that helped make this community what it is today.
-
Fucking heartbreaking....
Really glad I got to spend time with Marv recently on BMB's yacht crabbing...I could tell he was hurting but he never once complained...
Love you Marv.
-
I'm so sorry to hear this.
from the early days of fishing Bean, to one of my open studio shows a few years ago, Marv has always been a great guy.
-
Heartbreaking!!!!!
Marvin has always put aside his own well being for others. I know he was exhausted and not feeling well when he stayed up all night cooking at Ariel and Shifra's wedding, but would he let any of us give a hand? HELL NO!!!!
Still keeping him in my prayers!!!!
-
Prayers are with you Marv🙏🏽
-
Jesus...sad news indeed. I have nothing but love for our NCKA family. Prayers, and good wishes to our brother.--TLA

hey Marv , we`re all here.. we love you
+1 to this. It’s hard to find the words to say, but if I were any good at it, Vic’s words are the ones I would choose.
-
pure sadness. Marv is the realest of people. I remember napping at Albion, and was awaken by Marv, asking me if I wanted some of his Pizza? Nicest guy you would ever meet.
Like Sony, I too believe in miracles.
-
This is so sad and it breaks my heart. His video of him landing in big surf after a day of catching fish has always inspired me to push my kayak fishing to the max.
I last saw him at our hook up in HMB for the 2019 Salmon Season closer. Him and his friend Mark brought some bomb ass food to share and hung out for a bit. He wasn't looking great but it was great to see him. Marvin is a great example of why I love NCKA...dude has a big heart, he shares tons of knowledge, and he's always throwing it down in the kitchen/grill for his homies. Sending prayers and good vibes to our brother Marvin AKA Shicken

This x1000.
I thought I actually knew how to barbecue until I met Marv. Experiencing his culinary wonders and his willingness to share his unparalleled knowledge forever changed how I approach the craft now.
-
For such a quiet guy Marv has a huge presence.
He is not only a shining example for NCKA, but the world!
-
Me and Piski dropped by to see Marv last night. As he says...the reports of his imminent demise have been greatly over-exaggerated. We had fun chit chatting about lots of things, including baking doggy treats, his mom's cooking and the numerous women that Marv has in his cabal. If you want a chance to hook up with one of his ladies, this is the time to pounce.
Good seeing you marv!
-
I am very grateful for the love and support from NCKA. It's been very helpful for keeping myself afloat and as comfortable as possible. The past 18 months have been tough and I dont expect things to get easier. Some days I cant get out of bed, some days i feel decent and I can be out and about.
-
Good to hear from you, Marvin.
-
Yes good to hear from you Marv. Praying you get well soon.
You can keep all your ladies. Just need a piece of your pizza dough with the good yeast☺️
Want to do homemade pizza too👍
-
Hang in there Marv!
Best, Mike
-
Marv, i always dug hanging with you around the coals, you are a damn good dude!
-
Marv,
Hang in there! I just wanted to say THANK YOU for being such an inspiration to myself and everyone on this forum. I still remember the first time I met you buying some brewing equipment. I had some of your leftover BBQ from a previous gig and then some homemade sourdough bread with butter.... SOOOO GOOD
-
Thank you for all the cards and well wishes.
Its been a rough ride lately. Some days I am stuck in bed, no energy to get up. I've had to train some friends and family on my needs to help keep me afloat. Its a struggle to get enough nutrition and maintain hydration.
-
Wishing you well Marv. Your contributions and friendship to the Ncka family over the years are greatly appreciated . You are Loved by many Marv !!!!

You have handled the shitty cards you've been dealt like a true champion.
I wish you well with much love my friend.

Sending Love your way Marv. I heard the journey home is an amazing ride filled with love.
You will always be here with us on NCKA. --TLA
-
Much love bro!!! Sad to hear this. Was great seeing you and Harry a few months ago with your surprise visit to me here in Salinas.
-
I love you Marv. All of your kindness and compassion covered in good common sense gravy makes for a bad-ass plate of nourishing friendship. Thanks for being my friend. Your pork belly was the best thing ever ate in Mcovey cove by anyone ever. Million dollar yachts included.
