I am very sorry for the loss of C.G. Martin. I did not know him but I have dealt with his company for the past few years and have enjoyed our business relationship. Toni has been delightful to work with and the company has always seemed to be very straightforward and ethical. Now that I have read Mr. Martin's obituary, I can see that his Christian influence is a big reason for this. To Toni and all the family, may God bless you and be especially close to you during this time. Edwin Donohoo, Precision Steel Inc.

We at the TSU Railway wish to extend deepest sympathy to all the family and employees and friends of C.G. We are so sorry at the loss of C.G. It has always been a privilege for all of us to be associated with the folks of C.G. Martin Company. It has also been with admiration that we have watched C.G., Joe, and Connie take the company to the heights it has accomplished to date. The success of the Martin family has to be a source of pride for the whole family in all that each of you have accomplished. And personally I wish to add that I wish all God's comfort and a special hand around all of you during this period in your lives. It is never easy giving up a loved one in our lives. May you all be especially blessed in this time of sorrow, but also in your lives to come, as you have in the past. On behalf of the employees of the TSU Railway and myself, regards, Russell Crosby
