From the Martin Family 12th November 2011

"A Man of Humility" A man of simple needs and wants, a kind and gentle man. Fiercely dedicated to family is but a single dimension of Gordon Richard Martin. Work for him was a joy, the full expression of dignity and a source of pride. He had a unique ability to motivate and inspire, little time for complaining of his lot, more of what he could do to overcome what ever obstacles existed. His spiritual life was his source foundation upon which his total life was lived. Most of all, this legacy has been passed and manifested in the succeeding generations of his family. This is a minute sketch of a man who lived totally his 86 years on this earth, always in the firm belief that "God awaits only the separation of spirit from the flesh to crown us with a Full Reward"
