Dear Judy, Mark and family. I first met Marty in 1967 or 1968 in Odessa TX working for Cloth World. He was always so kind to my family. After that my wife and I moved to Dallas and he would drop by just to chat and offer encouragement. In 1981 My brother and I opened our own company and he helped us by offering his lines as if we were the most important people in the business. His love affiar with you Judy was widely known and respected. We are sorry for your loss and pray as time goes on that the pain softens and your good memories are illuminated, In sympathy Keth and Vicki Klem
