This is something that I have been putting off for a while due to Marty's wishes.

As most of you know Marty has been away for some time now. He has been very sick and unfortunatly his time is now probably limited to a week at best. He has been too uncomfortable to spend any time on the computer. We have emailed back and forth and he has made his peace with god. At this point he is now too weak to talk.

Please keep Marty, his family and friends in your prayers.

 

I'm not sure what to say, I never met Marty but would still consider him a friend. This is defenitly hittin on a personal level for me..

 

I know Pete...............I know.

I have met Marty and talked with him on the phone many times. He is a very important member of the chapter.

 

i liked marty he's a good guy. i send my prayers as well. get well bud and we love you...
i think i can speak for the family that we made in the years. and he's part of that family.
all you guys are.. male or female we're all in this together..

 

Man this hits me hard. Marty and his wife are part of my family. I have talked with him and his wife on the phone. They are so wonderful. My thoughts and prayers are always with them.

 

respect....................

 

I think I can say this from ALL of us here, pass on our regards from this family to his.

 

Marty, if you do get a chance to read this, well, you're ranked right up there buddy. We've never met in real life, and it really is a shame, but ...

I for one have missed you on the boards here. But if it is your time, so be it, I'll meet up with you another time.

God speed.

 

My thoughts are with you Marty, and your family, even though I never met you in person, you helped me tremendously through a really bad time with your messages and emails.....thinking of you and your family.

 

This is some very sad news..

I never met him, but we had some good conversations on FTE..

My prayers go out to him and his family..

 

All I can say is WOW, there are not too many times I
am speachless but this is one of them so I will say
my thoughts and prayers to family. God Bless
This maybe one time my signature applies.

 

Marty and I have never had the pleasure of meeting, but we've had many a conversation here on FTE, and he was a regular visitor to the Nebraska Chapter. It's so hard to come up with the words for this. Marty, you'll be in our prayers brother. We've missed you here, and we'll continue to miss you. But, know well, that'll meet again, my friend. This has really hit home that life is too short, and we should all appreciate those around us. God Bless Marty.

Chris, thanks for letting us know.

 

Marty....man, I know you are out there (in more ways than one, dude!) but you will always be here in my heart, as well....thinking of you....praying that your peace carries you through and know that you are not alone....one day, we will finally meet~~~

Thoughts and prayers to you, Marty....and to your family.

All that I can say is Oh Crap !!!! I am stunned and speachless. I knew that Marty was having some health issues but I did not know that it is this serious.
I have only met him on here and to me he is like a brother. We are the same age and this hits me really hard and it reminds us how fragile life can be.

Marty- you and your family are in my thoughts and one of these days, we will meet.

 

I don't really know what to say.

My thoughts go out to you Marty, and your family.
