Memorial to John Martin .

I worked at CMB for about two years, yes I know not a long time. But to me those two years showed me how wonderful of a man John was. I was young and let's say even more young minded. I had made some personal mistakes that fell into my work world. I will never forget when John called me into his office and had a talk with me. Not that he wasn't a wonderful, smart, and special person before this talk but once we talked my respect for this guy went way above and beyond anyone I have ever worked for or with and to tell you the truth anyone I have ever known. He truly cared for me and showed passion I have never seen before from anyone. For that I thank you John! I am truly sorry for the loss and void that will never be filled like John new how to fill. Your a wonderful man and will be missed by me and many others for eternity.

John was far and away the best professor I had at Babson. S.McNeil M92

It's about 1990. I'm Australian and the company I worked for had engaged CMB to undertake some market research in the US on it's product line. I was staying at (I think) The 4 Seasons. John came to see me and INSISTED I stay at his home with Marion and Travis (I kept the hotel room as well). The Martin generosity of the time is still with me. I have since stayed with the Martins (once with my wife) and been to the Hamptons. Even from the other side of the world John was there for me! To me he was one of life's hero's Michael Nesbit PS John was a good INSISTER!!!
