Rev. Patsy and family. We will always remember Mr. Martin as being one of the last patriarchs of our generation. He taught the boys softball, baseball, football and industrial arts at the Boys Club. He was one of the best Sunday School teachers and was always painting and repairing at Waddell Chapel AME Zion Curch. May it help you to know there are many who are sharing your sadness over the loss of a very special life. With sincere sympathy, William (Butch) and Gloria Mitchell

Aunt Patsy and Junior (and grands) please know that Kip and I are praying for your all. May God give you strength, peace, and love during this difficult time.

There are no words to express the passing of Mr. Martin. He was family and a great human being. I remember him as a teacher that we all looked up to and respected. Just know that he lived a full life and will always be alive through the kids that he inspired and taught.

One of my most favorite people in the world. The day you called me just to say hello and get an update on my life brought me such joy. You helped me perfect my cursive writing and didn't play when it came to conjugating those verbs. You had a genuine interest in my success and became like a grandfather figure to me. My sincere condolences to your family. Heaven just gained a beautiful angel. Until we meet again.
