A life full of accomplishments and a long history of work success including positions as Director of Audit for NASA, Director of Program Integrity for the States of NY and CT, and partner with Ernst & Young.

He was a WWII Veteran, a tireless worker, the ultimate gentleman, loyal friend, loving father, grandpa, great grandpa and DEVOTED husband to Ceile for 73 wonderful years. He always put others needs before his own and his generosity to others was beyond MEASURE. He will be sorely missed but forever honored and his memory will live in the hearts of all that he touched.

In this time of unparalleled insecurity and unrest for all of us who have been lucky enough to avoid life in abject poverty or a war zone, we miss the signal qualities that Marty always showed: integrity without righteousness, compassion without shaming, generosity without expectation and most of all, true friendship.
