Mr.Fine as i always called you even after my ten years with you!! You taught me so many things....mostly about life lessons as you were like a father to me. I remember all the times at your east hampton house...all those antiques.pool parties..You were an incredible person,,very generous .I want to thank you a million times for giving me the incredible chance to run the Blue Willow. From there all other doors opened for me. The loft that i lived in for the eight years that you let me stay in will never be repeated...that surely was a once in a lifetime gig, cmon 3k square foot loft with floor to ceiling windows!!!
Mr. Fine most of all you helped me become the man i am today. I will miss you ,,, may hashem guide you the rest of the way....love you

"I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."

Please accept my sympathy on the loss of your uncle, Marty. I worked for Marty many years ago, selling lofts for him in New York. He was delightfully impossible. I know he will remain in the hearts of many who he helped along the way.
My friend, client, colleague Captain Marty

Martin Fine was my client and friend. We met in 1994 at a time when he needed litigation counsel on a myriad of issues. Through our many hours spent together strategizing, defending, prosecuting litigations in most of the Courts in New York County, we developed a mutual respect for one another which developed into a friendship.
Once friends, we spent many memorable times together. My wife and I were permanent summer residents in his East Hampton house for several years before, during and after our children were born. Many hilarious hours were spent sailing with Marty on his Formosa. There were several times when his boat ran aground, or the engine became fouled or the propeller got stuck around a lobster trap marker rope or the engine overheated requiring us to be towed or worse. As Marty’s first mate, I was called on to dive under the boat or climb the mast or pick Marty up from various harbors. Most times we laughed about it.
Spending summers with Marty in East Hampton will be some of the most memorable and happy times for my entire family. Heidi was pregnant with our first child, Karli during the summer of 1996. Karli learned how to walk and swim at Marty’s house. Barbeques, Father’s Day and Birthday celebrations were abundant.
Marty was a great admirer of antiques. Countless hours were spent attending antiques shows, fairs and auctions. Always buying and never selling.
Marty was not the easiest person to get along with. He was infuriating at times. He would speak his mind. He could even be hurtful at times. But that was Marty. You had to look past the bad, to find the good. The good always outweighed the bad.
Who can forget Marty’s captain’s hat? It always served to remind us that Marty was the captain!

Dear Marsha & Jill,
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your uncle, who I will always remember as my cousin Marty Fine. Although we hadn't seen each other in many years our families did share many happy times when we were young. Your grandmother Lilly Greenwald Fine and my mother Greta Klein Browne were first cousins. I even took both of you to the movies when you were young and visiting your grandparents in Brooklyn. So many years have gone by since I saw Marty last, but it was at a family Bar Mitzvah, and he reminded me so much of your grandfather Sam. In any event, my heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

I knew Martin through his real estate dealings in East Hampton. We spent many hours searching East Hampton for investments. I got to know him as an astute appraiser of properties and whether he bought or not, he always let me know why he made the decision he made. I was involved in his only purchase and sale during the 1993-2005 period. Where we agreed to disagree was in the arena of politics. We learned very early in our relationship that it was better to keep away from the subject. I will miss his conversations, as brief as they were. Knowing he was not well these last months, I tended to keep my distance. I wish I had not done so.
