is survived by his wife of 50 years, Opal Ella and two sons Joel and Paul.

Professional Engineer with Phillips Petroleum Co. He was one of the head 
engineers for the Ecofisk offshore platform in the North Sea near Norway. 
He loved to build and fly remote control airplanes and was a patient and 
crafty fisherman. He often had a quick word during a conversation. He 
liked to make things of wood, there was a large Walnut tree that was 
struck by lightning on a farm near Chickasha OK that he cut down, sawed 
into planks and built numerous items out of it, including a rocking cradle 
for his grandchildren and a flag case for his brother in law. Martin grew 
up on the shores of Lake Michigan in a little town called Petosky. He 
served in the Air Force in 1944 and was graduate of Michigan University. 
He will be missed by all who were touched by him.
