My Dear Friend Jan,
Please give your Mom lots of love, from her Gertie xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
and you always remember you can make new friends, but it is the old friends that are Gold. I am thinking of you always, especially these next few days. You have had a special
father-daughter bond that only a few of us daughters can hold on to.
Remember the times, laugh about them and cry about them but dont ever forget them. They are yours, Jan, and you made your Dad proud. He will be with you always....
Love ya,
Friends always
Kim

To all the Martus family--

Mr. Martus was such a kind and funny man. He didn't say a lot, but when he did, you were apt to listen and usually laugh. While we know he is in a better place and are grateful that he is at peace, he will be sorely missed at family gatherings. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

With sympathy and love,
Mason and Donna Rotelli

Rest in Peace,
