My thoughts and prayers are with Marina, Marty, Angie and Jenny on the loss of their wonderful husband and father. I had the pleasure of teaching Marty and Angie and both parents went out of their way to help in the classroom, on field trips and years later, Senator Sandoval came to Career Day! One of my fondest memories was sharing in their Quinceanera Celebration. Remember that Martin lives in the hearts and lives of so many that he has touched over the years!

Marty was always the best. I have known him since he was 12 years old. He played on my dad's Frank A. Navarro baseball little league team. He was a great man. May he rest in peace.

I worked with Martin for a number of years at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in Chicago. He was a great employee, colleague, and friend who was very effective at his work and always had a friendly smile. Martin would always help out with whatever work or personal challenge you might have. He was always there to lend a helping hand. Just a couple of years ago he returned to our office for a visit, and remembered and greeted us warmly like he had only left for a few days. Hoping...
