Not sure what to say?

Hello, my condolences, I´m truly sorry for your loss. my name is Maribel and my father was Jaime Martin. I´ve been trying to locate my family members. Hopefully this message reaches out to you in love. Take care. Maribel

Thinking about you today, as I still do everyday. This day in particular I am thinking how blessed I was to have you for a father. Even though tears still come easily when I think of you, I miss you so, my heart always smiles at the thought of you as well. Many thanks for the many life lessons, learned for the most part by being witness and recipient to your goodness, generosity, and love. Happy Father's Day. Love you always.

What can be said that hasn't already been said about my Dad. Not only was he a great man, surgeon, family guy, and friend...he was a source of inspiration, free medical advice, guidance, and unconditional giving to not only his family but also his friends.
If I can achieve just a fraction of what he has accomplished during his lifetime...I'd be happy. Hopefully, someday I hope to make him proud of me as I am of him. I miss you Pop.
Love and admiration, your eldest son, Len.

Hi Pop!
You looked resplendent though not your favorite brown suit. Clouds and cold when we all tossed flowers: So ". . .You make me [us] happy, when skies are grey."
What privilege and elation when told of how you affected other lives.
It is not easy to attain your creed: Do your best unto others.
But LOVE ALWAYS.

My Uncle Leonardo lived on the other side of the country from me so I wasn't able to see him as much as I had wished. However.....I have some VERY fond memories of him as a child. He was a loving, compassionate man. I will miss him. My love and prayers got out to my Aunt and cousins.
Love,

Vincent Smith

Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Martin family. Although we did not have the honor of meeting Mr. Martin during his life, we know how much he is loved and adored by his daughter Gina, husband Michael and kids - Julie and Nate. Sending our sympathy during this very sad time. With love, Patty O'Hara and Kurt Wendelborg

Len, our wonderful neighbor for 29 years, we miss you. The tennis, the dinners and happpy celebrations are treasured memories. You inspired our son, John to go into medicine and your quiet, warm humor influenced us all. We hold you in our hearts.

I can't even say how much I love you and miss you. You had an amazing, inspirational life. Thank you for everything, especially your legacy of love that you leave behind for all of us to share. God bless you. You are always in my heart.
