i remember you taking me to pool and i had a great time
Appreciated your friendship over many many years Martin, R.I.P. dear friend, Till we meet again.
When I think of my uncle Martin I remember the CNE as a little girl. He took Liz and I (my first time) there one hot end-of-summer day and we had a great time. He was not a talkative guy so it was easy for me to see him as this big scary guy with his tattoos and wild hair, but it changed that day when he put on a big flowery hat and wore it as if it was perfectly normal.
When I moved to toronto he helped me find an apartment and made me feel loved and cared-for. My uncle Martin was more of a father figure to than my own father ever was.
He’s in a better place now and I know he’s looking down on us with love and pride.
I am so very sorry to hear of Martin's passing. I have fond memories of the many times visiting Sylvan Ave chatting with Martin, especially at Liz and Kenny's wedding, as well as numerous Christmas Celebrations.
Rest in peace Martin.
My heart and love is with you all.
