MARTIN BLOOM

Heartfelt condolences

Marty would be happy that his early enthusiasm for pickleball started the surge of interest in the sport at the Stockbridge Golf Club, and will finally be realized with the construction of two new courts this winter. Way to go Marty!

Captain, my captain. Those were the words I so frequently used when talking to Marty, who captained our USA bridge team to Macabbi bronze in Budapest. Your love, spirit and kindness will be with us always. Artie

Marty had an enthusiasm for life and a bounteous sense of humor that touched all of us. May he rest in peace with a perpetual smile.

My deepest condolences to Glenna and the Family . I had the privilege of working and learning from Marty during my days at MMC in NYC late 80s. He was a man of integrity and class!

My sincere sympathy to Glenna and family for the loss of Marty Bloom. I have known and played tennis with Marty in Central Park for the past several years. Often, we were paired together in doubles and we enjoyed playing together. He was a friendly, warm, smart... and even though up in years, his strong stamina keep him active in tennis... and also promoting Pickleball in Central Park. May he "Rest in Peace."

Marty was an amazing man! I first met him when we were establishing The Penn Club of New York. He was smart, kind, innovative and caring. I will miss him!

It was always a joy to see Marty on the tennis courts. He made every season brighter. I will miss him dearly

I am one of Marty´s legion of Central Park tennis friends whose spirits were always lifted by his zest for the game along with his uniquely delightful sense of humor. He is already sorely missed by all; I send Glenna and the Bloom family our deepest sympathy.
