I owe my career in construction to Marty.
WWMD “What Would Marty Do”
Deb and I will truly miss him.

In lieu of flowers

In lieu of flowers, consider a gift to Open Homes Fellowship.
Marty was a great friend and wonderful partner in being Papa. He will always be in our hearts. I will miss our chats.
I learned so much from Marty about how to treat all people with kindness and respect. He had high empathy for others but understood discipline and how to be tough with kindness.
He used humor masterfully to connect with people.
Live Love Laugh!

Share your sympathy. Send flowers from a local florist to Marty's family or funeral.
I learned the true benefit a team receives when their leader has a intrinsic positive, optimistic (but realistic), can-do spirit. Marty raised up everyone on his team to their best potential every day by his positivity.

I had the pleasure of first meeting Marty when we worked together on the Arnold Palmer Children's Hospital. I am a better person for the experience and wished I could have had more projects with Marty.

My condolences on your loss, but I know that Marty is in a better place.

God Bless
I remember Marty explaining to me how AC and DC voltage differed in how homes and cars were powered. After my dad passed, he and Wendy met me up at my dad's in Melrose, FL, where a recent storm had knocked the "power pole" off the main house, which is used by the electric company to run power to the house. I had some poor ideas about "fixing" the damage, and he had an electrician repair and restore power within a day or so. At two separate times I tried to repay him for the repair, which he swiftly refused and told me to "talk to Wendy" - who would you believe it told me, "talk to Marty." :-) To this day I can still explain to another how power comes in from power lines, to a "power main" (where the meter is mounted) and broken in to two "streams" - 110 volt and 220 volt. The 220 has lines running to one or two places in the home where there are larger appliances (such as a Dryer), and the 110 runs to everything else. Isn't it amazing that I can still explain this 20 years later. It was the first time I met him. Thanks Marty.
I really enjoyed working with Marty on the Ft. Benning Project. He was someone that I could talk to when my Mother passed away during that project. I learned a lot about having true compassion for people by Marty’s example.
A very special person that will remain in my thoughts. My Prayers are with you Wendy.
I was honored to know such a nice kind and caring man. I worked with Marty for over four years at Fort Benning on his huge project that he loved at Fort Benning Georgia. God bless you Marty for all the memories
I had the pleasure of working with Marty for three years on the Martin Army Community Hospital project. He coaxed me into taking a position on a “once in a career” opportunity I had absolutely no experience for. He hardly knew me but somehow knew I was up for the challenge. His energy and optimism were contagious and his dedication was endless. I am blessed to have known him, grateful to have learned from him and saddened that he is no longer with us. He was an awesome mentor and I will miss him.
God welcomed a kind and gentle man, who was one of the most positive, patient and compassionate people I have had the pleasure of working with.
The world lost a great leader and compassionate man. Marty always taught me that no matter how dark things were there was always a silver lining or positive viewpoint. I am a better person through what Marty taught me and I know that I am not alone. I often hear the unique sayings Marty had left us with used from time to time, they are just not delivered the same way Marty did. We will miss you greatly Marty.
Sitting at work here in Northern California while reading this and feel like crying and smiling at the same time. Marty was a joy to know and a pleasure to work beside. Regardless of the stress of a situation or moment, Marty was the same...genuinely helpful and genuinely happy.
Thank you for your humility, your humor, and your enduring influence Marty.
Marty had a huge positive impact on my life. I am grateful to have had the priviledge of working beside him as a friend and a colleague. I think about him all the time and the way he lived his life. "Live, Love, Laugh".

Marty was a friend and mentor. One of the highlights of my career was working under Marty's leadership in the pursuit of the Martin Army Community Hospital and then under his leadership during its construction. There is a hole in my heart right now. Rest in Peace M-squared.

Marty and Bob were my baby twin brothers. I was nine years old when they were born and was so pleased to have these beautiful babies to love and help care for. Marty was always a brave soul, even to the end. 2Timothy 4: Verses 7-8 say it best: "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day--and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing." I miss you Marty, but I am confident we will be together again. Love you!
Marty was devoted to God , family , country and Wendy’s cooking! We all loved him and will miss his down to earth stability!
Marty had the most wonderfully Kind Spirit!!
Weekend Trips spent together to see our beloved Gators Romp in the Swamp will always be cherished memories. I will miss our conversations about construction and of course our days at the College of Building Construction at the University of Florida
In response to "What always reminds you of Marty?"
One of the smartest and kindest men in my family, I am glad I got to meet and spend time talking to him, brief it was in the scope of life. I remember him being there for me immediately when my dad passed, and he was a logical and compassionate man that I hadn't known well before that period of time - I remember thinking, what a cool smart guy, the Rote's could use more like him in our family. A genuine good man. Rest in peace sir.
