Martin, my old friend, unfortunately I’m living in Mississippi and can’t make the services. I remember Duck Hunting, Dove Hunting and just hanging around Deale getting into mischief!

Martin was generous with his wealth of country knowledge. I will miss his wry humor and commentary. They don’t make men like him anymore.
