I will always remember our days at Spruce Sands and Martin and I watching the skies for UFO's. He was a joy to be around and always wonderful to our family. I also remember him coming to the rescue when our son Keith got sick and Martin knew exactly what to do. We often have thought of Martin and Irene and have cherished the friendship we shared. He will be missed. Tom & Jo-Anne - Posted by: Jo-Anne & Tom Roberts (friends) on: Apr 01, 2017
