He was such a wonderful wonderful person and had the most amazingly beautiful contagious laugh. You can contact him at Drawmatic@hotmail.com OR MySpace/ Drawmatic

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight I hadn't seen himin some while and during the past meet, I believe it was MM who asked about him. I had changed phone due to my old one acting up and lost some numbers when I changed to my new one. I never thought to look for my old SIM card. Just by chance, I saw it in a box in my room and instantly thought of Marty. Popping the card into my phone, I searched for his number. Thankfully, both his home and cell number were there, as well as his son Nikko's number. No answer rom Marty's home or cell number,so I lfet a msg on Nikko's cell. Nikko called me back last night, and told me about his Dad. I'm just so sad over Marty passing. I didn't get to hang out with himas much as I'd of liked to , but the time's we did hang out, it was simply wonderful. Our last real good hang, wasspending time together talking and cracking up and watching his son Nikko and my DD Madame Leota swing dancing to the tune's of Swing Town in DL. Time would slip away between our visits,but each time we saw eachother it was if no time had passed at all, and we were right back to talking about what we were the last time, and catching up on anything new that surrounded us. Marty's most incredible laugh could make anyone with even the coldest heart , warm up. I will miss him greatly.
