I worked for Martin from 1989 - 2002 (pic I was 16 years old in my first job) and am deeply saddened to hear of his passing and so sad that we lost touch. My sincere condolences to his family. Martin may you rest in eternal peace surrounded by angels xx

I’m sorry I can’t be there Jo. My mother in law is moving house & I need to help.
I will watch it & be thinking of you all.
The man the legend. He had such a way of making people he met feel special. He was so helpful on the slopes the day my 18 year old didn’t come home one night & my wife & I were worried sick.
I feel honoured to have had the privilege to meet him.
RIP Martin will miss that laugh xx

It’s hard to lose someone who meant so much to all of us, and even harder that Elaine and I can’t be with you in person but you are very much in our hearts and in spirit now and in the days and weeks ahead.

With our deepest love

Luis & Elaine
