Marty was a kind, beautiful soul and I recall the shock and sadness that I felt in hearing of his passing. He was earnest in his athletic endeavors and a really serious competitor. He adored his mom.
tribute by Taaj Jaharah (former high school nickname ‘Betsy’)Marty was a wrestler I think, though I only knew him through friends in high school, he had the biggest biceps and was rather shy.
tribute by Connie Buss-GilleI did not know Marty well, but recall that he was kind, soft spoken, and incredibly strong!
