Martin Chmura Obituary

I think of Marty often & still find it hard to believe he´s gone. The picture of his wonderful smile is how I remember him when walking down the halls at McD´s. I especially enjoyed the 2 yrs. I got to spend as Marty admin. in our Central Div. office. Then we both made it back to COB, just in different depts. He & I would discuss climbing the stairs in Palos, including him having his wheel stolen in that parking lot. Please know that anyone who knew Marty will never forget him.

Great guy. I played for Topps against Marty and Mark (So.Holl Bank) in little league, and also went to St.Jude, so I have fond memories of both brothers. Marty was a Pete Rose type, but a real comedian, at the same time. He was a real competitor, but knew how to have a good time. He came from a great family, and my heart goes out to the entire Chmura clan. I haven't seen Marty in 50 years, but I remember him like a brother. God Bless!

I just heard of Marty´s passing & can´t believe it. I was Marty´s admin. when we were in the Central Division office. Then we both made it back to COB. I was in a different dept., but close to Marty´s. He was such a special person. He always had a smile & would take the time to give his advice when asked. We talked about walking the stairs at Swallow Cliff in Palos. My heart goes out to your entire family. He loved his family very much & talked about his kids all the time. He will be missed by many, many people.

I was saddened to learn of Marty's passing and wish to offer my condolence to the entire Chmura family. I played Junior College baseball with Marty at TCC and later was his college roomate at Eastern Illinois University. Marty was always fun to be around and we had a lot of great, late night poker games and highly competitive games of Risk. We always enjoyed friendly banter around our baseball allegiances and I could always count on a few extra dollars in my pocket each year from our annual Cubs/Sox bet. I have a lot of great memories of Marty and he will be missed.

Judy and the whole family,Pam,Kenny andMark.

I was so saddened to hear of Marty's passing. I haven't seen Marty in over 25 years but we grew up together in the Dolton/South Holland area and were classmates at St. Jude the Apostle grade school and Thornridge High School. In fact, Marty and I sat next to each other in Freshman English at Thornridge. Marty was such a nice guy. My deepest condolences to his wife and family during this very difficult time. Rest in Peace, Marty.

Marty started in the Franchising Department at McDonald's and I was working there when he joined us as a law clerk. He was a great hire and had a very successful career with a tremendous company. I was shocked when I heard of his passing as I saw him in Jan or Feb of this year when I was at the corporate office. His smile was infectious. Judy, his wife, worked for me for many years and Jill and I extend our sympathies to the Chmura family.

Thinking of the Chmura family during this difficult time. I am so sorry for your loss.
