Dearest Uncle Martin,

It is with a heavy heart that I write this. The Lord decided He needed a new "tell it how it is" kind of guy and chose the best man for the job, sadly taking you away from us.

You brought so much laughter into our lives and were never afraid to speak your mind. You also did a great job as the vocal discipline coach for Marcus and me—we'll never forget those moments.

You will always hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you for the memories, the laughs, the lessons, and for simply being you.

May you rest in eternal peace.

With all my love,

Marvin 🪽🙏❤️

God bless you, Martin.
The Lord must be short of good men up there, because you certainly were a good man.
You’ll be missed by so many.
Hope there’s a betting shop up there!
Rest well.
Terry, Your Daddy-in-law.
(That’ll make you laugh.)
