Not sure what to say?

Paige, we just received the news of you dad's passing this afternoon from a text Mike sent to us. I always enjoyed being around him and was glad we got to visit with you, Logan, and your dad a couple of years ago at the hotel in Waco and later that evening at the Baylor Football game. Wish we would have known so we could have attended the services. God bless you and your family.

I am so sorry to learn of Jack's passing. He now leaves an empty place in my view of the world. I had the pleasure of a friendship and professional relationship through and entire career with Jack. We collaborated both in our private practices and in academics at the Health Science Center. What a delightful person. He will always be missed. Dave Leibold

Jack, you were a good friend and brother in christ. I was blessed to get to know you and work with you on the STARS retreats. You will be missed.

I was blessed to have worked with Jack in constructing, painting and setting up the sites for Concordia's Drive Thru Nativity for many years. Jack always took the time out of his busy teaching schedule to support this ministry with many hours of volunteer work. He was also a valuable contributor to a group who were asked to suggest ways to improve our ministry program at Concordia and he served faithfully and thoughtfully. My family purchased your Mom's car from Jack after she passed and...

Linda and I have known Jack since he started practice in the 70s, both as a colleague and dear friend. We have been eating lunch together on Monday since 1984, and missed very few. We are sure going to miss his professional advice and great sense of humor. (Some of you may not be aware that comedian/actor Steve Martin is his cousin) Jack was just an all around good guy!

Condolences to the Martin Family,
It was honor to work chairside for Dr.Martin when his practice was on Shook Ave. He was a kind man and great Endodontist. He will be missed. R I P Dr. Martin

I sat next to Jack every Tuesday morning at MBB Concordia Lutheran for nearly 2 years. Between the breakfast tacos & the message for the day, we became friends. I was very sorry to hear of his passing but heaven will receive no finer Christian than Jack. We are in Canada this summer so will miss the services, but my thoughts & prayers are with you all.
