My condolences toyour family. Marty was a person that was always positive and a role model to me. We were friends through high school.
One heck of an athlete and model citizen people always looked up to. I will never forget his smile and warmth to everyone he met!

I played football and basketball with Marty at LHS. I appreciated his athletic ability, but valued his friendship more. My condolences to the Dupee family.

For me Uncle "Butch" as we called Martin was very special. He and his former wife Mary were very dear to me. When I was young they often took care of me as their own. Uncle Butch introduced me at a young age to James Brown's music. Two years ago Uncle traveled to many places one of which was a visit to see my husband and I in Florida. It was at this time that he patiently took time to teach me how to play pool. I will miss his big smile and gentle voice.

To the family of Martin Dupee,
I was a classmate of Marty from grades seven through twelve and although he and I were not buddies, I vividly recall Marty to be a kind, softspoken, and modest young man. He held class offices and excelled in sports. He was a true gentleman and will be missed.
