I will always remember my Uncle Iggy as a kind, funny, warm man. I have fond memories as a child spending holidays with the whole Marth family. My thoughts and prayers are with you Aunt Joanie, Jill, Jack, and Julieanne and your families. Love, Colleen

Joan I am so sorry to read about John's passing, the short time I knew him we could talk about the Lehigh Valley and he always had humor. Andy

With love and best wishes for you and your family,

Sincerely,
