He was employed for many years by Morton-Thiokol/Ventron in Danvers and later Eisai in Andover until the time of his retirement.

Lisa and Family, Alan and I are so sorry for your loss of Marty. The last few days he is all we seem to think about. Our time with Marty was endless with laughing, jabs of each others favorite teams, ie: Celtics and Bruins, and going out to eat most weekends. Alan said the great times on Friday nights at “Monty’s” in the dugout laughing. We were
Drawn to each other through soccer in the early 80’s and it’s been an everlasting journey since. It was so much fun to prank Marty thru altered pictures, For sale signs on the lawn and even a toilet at one time. Alan said during occasional visits to Christmas tree shop Marty would sneak up to him and spray and spray him with perfume. I could go on forever….our memories will last forever as our love.
Dear Lisa and Family, So sorry to hear of Marty”s passing. We are sure he will be greatly missed by all . With great sympathy for you and your family.
Love to all Priscilla and Vic
Dear Lisa, our hearts are heavy with sadness. Marty was a special friend who warmly and graciously welcomed us into your family. The time and distance between us all was diminished by Marty phoning with special holiday and birthday messages. His love and support for his grandkids was beyond measure with the remarkable ability to blend with them — those endearing moments will be missed. Marty approached life in the grandest style, the warmest smile, the kindest soul and the deepest imprint on our hearts. We will miss him dearly. Love you, Carol & John
Dear Lisa so sorry to hear of Mart’ys passing. I will always remember him returning everthing he ever bought from Che Che back, they would go back and forth for hours, so funny
Dear Lisa and sons,
Debbie and I were deeply saddened to read of Marty’s passing. We have fond recollections of getting together as new co-workers and starting families at the same time. I have many fond memories of working with Marty at Ventron Danvers, and also many pleasant conversations with him since moving out west. I am glad we had a chance to visit with you and him 2 years ago when we were back in MA, for my brothers funeral. I will miss his occasional phone calls to share the latest local happenings and laugh about the fun we had working for 20 years together. He will be missed.
Michael and Debbie Funchion Olympia, WA
Beautiful ❤️
