Marty was a true icon in Metuchen. His work in 1992-4 with the YMCA expansion project (which took nearly two years to receive Zoning Board approval) changed the history of Metuchen. His grace, perseverance, and civility made quite an impression on this young YMCA CEO and all these years later I can vividly remember his closing remarks to the Zoning Board which I found to be so eloquent. His was a life well lived.
Joyce Wernik who I am helping out may me aware of Martin's death. He was one of my mentors as well as a role model. His mission was always to repair our world.
