With gratitude to the family of "Uncle Marty," I'm managing the memorials he created until one of his descendants would like to have them transferred back to his family.
Marty was my half-uncle, and his relationship to me is in parentheses as a wink to his memory. Marty was actually younger than my cousins and me, but that never kept him from stomping a foot and demanding that we call him "Uncle" from the time we were all small children.
You left much too soon -- rest peacefully, Uncle Marty.
