Marty was the definition of a good neighbor in so many ways. He was always kind and generous and willing to help in anyway he could.
Dear Paula and whole Waldman family. So sorry to hear of Martin’s passing, I have very fond memories of all of you especially the time Marty rescued my 2 yr old daughter from the upstairs bathroom in my mother’s house. He put a ladder up to the second floor and got her out. He was a wonderful, kind and thoughtful person.
