Larry D. Martin

Perhaps one more fox-faced god story is needed. Bow to Brontops--thumbs up.

To the Martin family I am very sorry for your loss, growing up as a neighbor was an experience I still treasure to this day. Your husband and father was "Mr Martin" even when I met him later in life, I rember being scolding for killing a spider as a child and being taught that spiders were important part of nature. I remeber sitting with "Mr Martin" later in life and drinking 5-Alive talking about SiFi. He will be greatly missed. I offer my thoughts and prayers along with my respect "Mr...

So shocked and saddened to hear of this news, Was a classmate for 12 years with Larry. Very unique person and will really be missed. So glad that we got to see him one more time at our 50 year class reunion. Rita

Larry, you are so greatly missed, and I am so sorry that you are no longer with your loving wife, family, Pugs, and all the wonderful friends and colleagues from all over the world; a few that Lambert and I have been fortunate to know.
I have known you since you and Jean Anne started dating, and you lived next door to us in Lincoln for a little while. I had the privilege of typing your masters dissertation, being your sister in law forever, enjoyed taking you to many antique shops when...

I am so sorry to learn of the loss of Larry, both to ourselves and to paleontology, which his talents, energies and knowledge served well. I'm glad as an artist I could contribute to the sabertoothed cat book which he co-authored. With sincerest condolences to family and fellow colleagues, Mark Hallett, Mark Hallett Paleoart

For the Martin family...y'all are in my thoughts and prayers...so sorry for your loss...

We love you and have missed you these past years since we moved to Colorado. Our life has been enriched by the many adventures with Larry and the stories that we've treasured over the years. The world lost a bright treasure and we lost a great old fried.

Dr. Martin was an outstanding professor and mentor. I will always appreciate that he was willing to let me conduct an undergraduate independent study and to return as a grad student. I will miss his quick wit and amusing stories. I am so glad that I got to visit with him one last time last October on a visit back to Lawrence.

We cannot come Friday evening, but will remember him at our Sabbath table. Deepest sympathies to his family, friends and students who will miss him always. May you be comforted by his life.
