Dear Bonnie and Collazo Family,

I was deeply saddened to hear about Marty’s passing. I'll always remember the love you two shared, even back when Bonnie and I worked together in 2010.

It doesn't matter what you call it, we were instant friends, almost like we already knew each other. We could talk to each other about ANYTHING: sports, politics, religion, you name it. One of the characteristics I loved most about Marty was his sense of humor. He seemed to have a great joke or...
