Robert A. Martin Sr.

I knew that I was going to miss grandpa but last night was when I finally realized how much. Last night some of us went over to Grandma & Grandpa's house and decorated it for Christmas, Josh & I were placing Santa & the reindeer on the roof and that was something Grandpa & I did for many years. It was very hard not having Grandpa there but I know thats what he would have wanted done. I plan on placing Santa & the reindeer up there every year, it will be hard with out you grandpa but I guess...

I can't believe it has been almost a month already. The pain of losing Grandpa hasn't changed at all. There are still sleepless nights, where I lie there thinking of special memories that he and Grandma made for us, thinking of Grandma and my heart breaking for her. I know life goes on, and that's what he wanted. I want to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for all of the sympathy cards, comments on here, the prayers, and the out-pouring of love our family has recieved. Grandpa...

Dear Gail and family:
We just heard about Bob's death a few days ago. It bounced us back about 30 years to our CCO days, and left us feeling very sad that we had lost touch over the years. The friendship that formed during all those weeks of practice & rehearsals with all of you will never be forgotten. Bob was my "South Pacific" man, and my "Damn Yankees" man -- what a guy! We miss not connecting with Bob, Jr. & Steve --it's been way too long. We would have attended his Life...

During the last two months of my wonderful Daddy's life, he said repeatedly that he didn't deserve all the gifts, cards, visits, prayers, and lovely thoughts that came his way from family and friends. He was always so humble and unassuming and so incorrect in believing that because he was always a true servant of God and a great person. We could never convince him that he was an overwhelming success as a husband, father, and an exemplary example of Christianity to all who knew him. He was...

Gail, Pam and Martin Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. The world is a lesser place with out him, but I know that he is in heaven singing with Lori.
My heart and prayers are with you.

Kenny and I want to express our heartfelt sympathy to the entire Martin family in your loss. Kenny has many warm memories of Mr. Martin, and while I didn't know him well, I always found him to be gracious, friendly, and obviously well deserving of the love surrounding him from his family. I'll never forget his beautiful voice singing at Paul's wedding. God has definitely added a voice to his choir in Heaven. Love to you all, Kenny and Connie Prager

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Robert must have been a wonderful man - I worked with Connie at American Airlines in Texas and she was always talking about the great fun she had growing up in this singing family. To have so many friends and such good memories is a testimony... one that every Christian hopes for. God bless you.

It's difficult to say goodbye to the man who was such a permanent fixture in all of our lives. I have to remind myself that it isn't a permanent goodbye. My tears aren't really for him, but for us, because he is in an amazing place, and we are here, feeling the loss. He was the rock of our family, and taught me to be the same for mine. He made me feel like there was nothing in the world that I couldn't accomplish. I will miss his face, his booming voice, his wonderful laugh. My prayer...

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
