Sue,
You know I have nothing but great things to say about Marty and yourself. I looked up to Marty and always had the utmost respect for him. Please feel free to contact or visit with us girls. I am just starting to teach them tennis as you taught me.
We love you,

Steve and I are so sad to hear of Marty's passing. What a great man! Steve has such an enormous amount of respect for Marty. Marty taught him so much and helped him more times than he can count. That is just the type of person he was. He has left quite a legacy. He will be terribly missed. Keeping you all in our prayers. Always here if you need anything.

Sue and Family - I asked about you and Marty when we had our 50th HS Reunion and was told then that Marty wasn't well. You two have traveled quite a road these past few years. Thoughts and prayers for you Sue (and family) in the days ahead. You two had 50 years together - that is a blessing in and of itself for sure. And Marty - released from the suffering he has endured for such a long time. So thankful that he was a blessing to others during his earth journey - now at peacefully at rest. Thank you Sue for all the love and support as wife and caretaker that you gave to your husband. Hugs, Constance Crissman
