I was fortunate to work with Marty at AARP for several years. He was a great person and a great mentor to me. Our legacy is the people whose lives we make better, and Marty did that for me and I'm sure many, many others.

I only wish that I knew he was less than an hour away. It would have been so nice to meet up again. What a stand out person he was, even in H.S.,always surrounded by friends, always a smile foe everyone. Anniversaries are always difficult for those who loved him.
May his family and dear friends think of all the good times and wonderful memories he left for you to treasure.
