I've worked at Good Sam for 31 years. As I was coming in saying "good morning" Marty was going out saying "good nite". We overlapped a little & it only took that time to know I realy liked Marty. We did talk baseball, of course. I told him I liked Palmero and to my surprise Marty brought me an autographed baseball. I also have memories of gentle words in hard times. We feel loss but he'll always still be here - in our hearts. Always.

I've known Marty for the better part of 35 years. First as a coach and also as a father of a friend. Then as I grew older, he wasn't Mr. Wolff anymore the coach or parent, but just Marty....my friend. He was always good for a laugh and an INTELLIGENT conversation about the Orioles and baseball. Nothing but fond memories that bring a smile to my face.
God speed Marty.

Dear Marge,
Even though I only knew Marty for 8 years it was my privilege to work with him. He was a great guy and will miss him deeply. My condolences to you and your family.

Amy was like a sister to me when we were growing up, so I spent just as much time at the Wolff household as I did my own. They even took me on their family vacations! I was very saddened to hear this terrible news. Please know that you are in the Leturgez's prayers & thoughts.

I feel truly honored to have had the opportunity to know Marty. There are not many people in this world that are as thoughtful, kind, warm and welcoming. I knew I could count on a good laugh and great conversation and always looked forward to time with him. My heart breaks for Marge, Amy, Mike, Stas, Madsy, Adam, Pam and Henry for such a loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and I can only hope that he's sharing a beer with Henry's other Pop in heaven and plotting a way for the O's to bring home a series championship! XOXO

Marty was always the consummate professional, funny, kind, and made sure all of the nursing staff was provided with top-notch service. He will be missed.

I was priveleged to work with Marty for 23 years. He had the best work ethic of anyone I have ever met. He took a young pharmacist, pretty much right out of school, and formed me to be the pharmacist I am today. Thank you! I will always remember you as a tough no nonsense pharmacist,a devoted Orioles fan, and a man with a tender heart for his grandchildren and family. God Bless You.
