Dear Jenny and families,
I knew your husband, father and grandfather from working at Alma Products. Marty was always smiling and a true pleasure to be around. Now that he is in God's house and doing his happy dance, please take solace in knowing that he is still smiling and looking down at you all. He was truly a great man and I was happy to have known him. My sincerest condolences to you all. God bless..
