Publish in a newspaper
Martin was the 6th child of 13 children. He leaves to cherish his memories his wife, Myra Furman; one daughter Precious Jackson; two sons Martin Jr. and Chris Norris, both of Florida; eight brothers, James (Janice) of North Carolina, George of Dayton, John and Matthew both of Xenia, Neal (Tracy) of Jamestown, Edward and Robert, both of Indiana, and Charles (Carol) of Huber Heights; three sisters, Martha Davenport of Dayton, Mary Jo of London, Ohio, and Elizabeth of Xenia; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
Martin had a beautiful soul and will not be forgotten by anyone who was ever touched by his presence. "Monk" is not easy to forget. May he rest in peace.

We will miss Martin. We grew up with the Furman's and Martin, became closer to us as the years went by. He was a welcomed right hand guy to my father and we all appreciated his reliability, fortitude and ability to always put a smile on ones face. It will not be the same without you Monk, God rest your soul.

Martin had a great smile and laugh, and yes, he could dance though I always told him he could not; he was always willing to help in any way he could. You will be missed, your sister-in-law, Priscilla.

Monk was a very outgoing man and he was always laughing and smiling. He also liked to challenge me in a run and was a dancing machine. Monk was very caring man and loved everybody. He will be missed dearly but will always be in my heart. My prayers go out to the entire Furman family for comfort,joy,peace,rest and a sound mind during this time of bereavement and mourning. May God bless you all and remember he has y´all in the palms of his hands and he will not let you go.
Love,
James and Theresa Graves
