Martin was a good friend years ago when I met him in Berkeley. I will always remember his somewhat mischievous smile and that infectious laugh of his. Martin made this world a better place and I feel very fortunate to have known him and been his friend!

"It has been said, 'time heals all wounds'. I do not agree. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone." ...Rose Kennedy
