Not sure what to say?

We just found out yesterday of Marty's passing. We were in Italy at the time and did not know. James has been calling his cell phone for weeks and just so happened to look on You Tube and found out. He is devastated. They have been friends since childhood. We are so sad that we missed the funeral and just shock of his passing. Our prayers are with his family and friends. Margaret, if you see this, please contact us.

Marty was a great guy on and off the Bandstand.We played many shows together with different bands since the mid 1980s. He made any band sound better. What a great blessing he was in my life.Can't wait to join you up there Marty.

My condolences to Marty's family and many friends. I worked a little with him in Nashville in the 70's. He was a great guy and a really great player. Brenda Clarke-Orlando Fl.

We are so sorry and shocked to hear of Marty's death. After reading his interesting life story, you realize what an impact he made in the music industry not just locally but also nationally. He was appreciated and regarded as one of the best and played with some of the biggest names in show business. We know he never stopped loving the gift God gave him and was always excited about his music and it showed when he was on any stage. We have respected and enjoyed the man and his music and...

We were so sorry to hear about cousin Marty. He will be missed by us all. I haven't thought about him in many years, but for some reason when I got home from my mom's (Chieko Maggio's) house late Sunday night/Monday am, I looked him up on the internet to listen to some of his music-that's when I found out about his passing. It's as if he himself let me know-I can't explain it. We send our thoughts & prayers to all the family & friends who loved him. Augusta Maggio from Mazon,IL & Chieko...

On Monday of this week I was told by Alton Calvez , a mutual friend of ours that Marty had left us on what I know is his transition to "eternal life" with God. Marty was a "bigger than life" multi-talented, extremely kind and a gentle "boisterous" soul. I am saddened that I won't get to hear or see him again in this world and will miss his telephone calls to tell me what he was excited about from time to time. I know that Marty loved his family and friends and always wanted to know if we...

I want to express my deepest sympathies to Marty's family and friends. I first met Marty when we were at Jeff Davis High School in 1968. I was a sophomore and Marty was a senior and we were both in the band. Marty was a terrific alto sax player in both the marching band and the stage band. Some of us would hitch rides with Marty to the football games and he would pick us up in an old 57 light green Chevy. Every once in a while during the drive the muffler pipe would fall off and one of...
