Not sure what to say?

Marilyn, Kim, Karen & Rosa,
We were so very sorry to hear of your loss. We remember Marty very fondly. We were part of the rowdy bunch from Anchorage who travelled to Seward to bowl in the Rainier Tournament. We so looked forward to our yearly trips and your family always made us feel so welcome. May fond memories help comfort you in the difficult times ahead.

The memories are too numerous to share my favorite one of your father. I do remember how your family would visit with the Smiths next door to us in Seward My condolences.

Marty, Donna and family lived right down the alley from us in Seward.  Few of us had relatives in town so he was like a favorite uncle to me.  He was a good role model for all of us. I remember how good natured, kind and outgoing he was and when I needed it he could be firm too. My sympathy to the Kowalski girls but can you imagine how much fun Marty, Donna, Marge and Tony are having?

Kim, Karen, Marilyn & Rosa,
I am so sorry to hear about your dad. I know how hard it is. You are all in my thoughts. He may be gone, but he will never be forgotten. He will always be a Seward icon.

Papa,
Each day I see your smiling face I am comforted. That sparkle in your eye was a warm and welcome reminder of 'home'. The wedding picture of you and Mago, the pictures of my own wedding where you looked so dashing in your tux, and the pictures of you laughing with my kids all bring a smile to my face, and a tear to my eye. I still get sad because I miss you so much and know how much Mom and all my wonderful Aunties miss you too, but I am also comforted because I know that you are...

Dad, I just wanted to say how much I miss your presence. When I am home in the evenings I often think of something that might interest you and think, "Oh, I should call dad." I know you are much better off where you are, and that is good for you, but my selfishness wishes you were still here for me. I miss you very much - you were the finest dad in the world and I thank God you were mine.

Sending sincere sympathy to the family. Marty was a great man and will be missed. With love and friendship.

I offer my friendship to comfort you during your time of loss. Marty was a wonderful person and he always made me and my family a part of your family. I have special memories of him that I will treasure for ever. My arms of love hug now ever tho I can not be with you. I will keep you are close to my heart, and in my prayers

Marty your going to be missed -from the days when I was a snot nosed kid and you set me straight to the few times we hit the links together-say hello to Donna and Mom for me
