I met Martin at the Chicago Athletic Association, he was a true gentleman and was very well like by everyone there and was a fixture at the club.

I am a much better person because your life touched mine..first at CINB and then again at the Tavern Club. Your picture should be placed next to the word "gentleman" in the dictionary. RIP Marty. Condolances to your loving family and friends. Bob Sharfman Chicago

We will miss you, Uncle Marty. I'm sure wherever you are you are the most gracious and charming man in the vicinity. I hope you and Pat are having a good laugh, a Manhattan, and are listening to Benny Goodman himself serenade you. You've made an indelible impression on me and my family. None of us will ever forget you. God bless you in Paradise. Love from all the Walshes.
