So sorry to hear about Marty's passing. I was running a "Whatever happened to.." check on names from the past and I came upon this. He and I worked together at Harris Bank decades ago and he was a super nice guy! The world is a less happy place without him as he was always gentle and kind. See you one of these days Marty, and my best for your family!
