I am truly sorry to hear the news. I am devastated. I viewed your husband not only as a great client but a surrogate grandfather, trusted confidant and friend. Please do not hesitate to call me if I can be of any help to you. I am very glad that I saw him before the both of you left for your vacation. He always brightened my day when he stopped by or called. I will never forget him.

The members of the warm-water therapy pool at the Highland Park
Health Club are at a loss to express how much we will miss Martin. He had a special "corner" and was so full of jokes and good humor. He teased us and made all of us smile. He worked hard to use his physical strength as best he could.
We shall surely miss him.

To the family of Marty:
It was a pleasure knowing Marty for
the last 2 years at the aqua class
at the health club. He was full of
fun and quite the teaser to all of us. He will be missed and I will pray for all of you.
