In loving memory of a wonderful person. Remembering good times together at Colorado College as shown in this old photo of us at the Broadmoor after tennis.

I have thought of Marty so often and have called his phone number every 6 months for years.
I worked with Marty in 98-2004. I met Tina. I helped him after he was diagnosed in his new apartment when he needed someone to pick things up off the floor and reach for things in his closets. He had big dreams and high hopes and that is what drew me to him. He was always gentle and kind, before and after his diagnosis. I got busy and disappeared into my own struggles.
I am saddened to hear of his passing. He had so much wisdom and so many dreams left to share.
If one person reads this, after all this time, He left an impression on me.
And may you rest in forever peace my friend Marty.
And Love to you who reads this. You must love him and think of him still.

To family and friends my deepest condolences. Marty and I were close friends as well as fraternity brothers at Colorado College. Marty took me to Rochester in 1970 to meet his parents in the 1960s and show me how beautiful Minnesota is. We spoke once on the phone years later and we had a warm and wonderful visit.
I was very saddened to learn of his sudden death from the Colorado College Alumni Magazine tonight. I will never forget all the good times we shared, his giggle, smile and great sense of humor.
