My sincere condolences to all of Martin’s family and friends. It was a great shock to hear of his passing and it brought a flood of memories from our high school years on. We would walk to high school past the building of Mohawk where we would both eventually work. I will remember the times in the theatre at Westmount, the chess games, the card games and our classes. At Mohawk we worked in almost the opposite ends of the campus, but we would reminisce whenever our paths crossed. I enjoyed the years our class reunions could get together and am saddened that the last few were necessarily cancelled. I will remember all the good memories from all the years. My sympathies to Linda and all his children.
Deepest sympathy to Linda and the family from all of Martin’s classmates in the Westmount Class of 1971. It was good to see you both at our class reunions, and I have so many fond memories of Martin.
