Dear Mr. Martin, Joyce, Jennifer, Tammy, Hannah, Abigail and family...

How do I begin, I am very sorry to hear about Brian, My name is Michelle Varvaris-PCA I met the family while taking care of Marty at Christ Hospital.. I know the family has been through so much these past couple of years.. just from spending so much time taking care of Marty.. Brian told me how he new my cousin Dale Borchardt, and how they worked together. Brian shared many stories with me about him and my cousin. I got to know almost the whole family... I was shocked to hear about Brian.. and I was very saddened, I know Abigail was a new member of the family and Hannah,, well she is a doll.... Tammy please keep your head up , no matter what always know Brian loves you and the girls.. thats all he talked about was Tammy, Hannah and Abigail.. I know it is going to be very, very hard just get up every morning.. but remember Brian is with you and the girls... always and forever.. stay strong and I know Marty and Joyce and Jennifer are there for you ... All of you have to help eachother right now.. and keep eachother going everyday... and always let the girls know thier Daddy loves them.. and he will always be with them and as they get older and are able to understand a little more, everyone can tell the girls all about thier Daddy... because thier are 10 lifetimes of things to share with the girls about Brain... and to Marty , Joyce, and Jennifer,,, with everything all of you have gone through please know Brian loves all of you ... he shared many stories, with me.. including lots of stories about you Marty,, know he loves you .. and even when you were sick he sat next to you just praying you would kick him in the rearend,, he said "hey Michelle, if I bend over, do you tink he'll move that leg?.." we both laughed, and I said "well it's worth a try"... I know so much has gone on with all of you and other losses you have suffered these past two years, I really wanted to let you know YOUR ALL IN MY PRAYS.. and please be strong for Brian's two little Angel's...

To the Martin Family:



Heartfelt condolences to you in the untimely death of your dear son, brother, and husband. We are fellow parishioners from St. Mary Star of the Sea. My husband John is also a police officer, so you see we are also part of "The Family". My son Mike went to St. Mary's with Jennifer. I remember Brian as an older Boy Scout addressing the younger scouts to stay with the scouting program for there were many things to learn and fun adventures ahead of them.

Brian went to heaven the same day my father did. His funeral mass at St. Mary's was the day before Brian's. Our hearts are heavy this week. I will keep you in my prayers and ask for yours in return.

God Bless You,

Kathy Morrissey
