Father Martin 
I know it has been posted before, but I'm so sad about Father
Martin. I know a lot of people owe their lives to his
teachings.

3. I am sorry, he was a wonderful man. He had a full life and certainly
helped a lot of people.

4. did you know he had narcolepsy?
He was real disappointed he could not drive anymore.
About 8 of us substance abuse counselors had dinner with him when he was here for a conference,
back in early 90's.
He looked tired, did not say much.
I showed the "Chalk Talk" and others of his taped letcures to at least 1,000 people over a 5 year time span.
A blessed man.
