Best wishes and Prayers Marty.
Marty,
Never had the chance to speak to you, I worry about being out of place in making any comment. However, through the list serve I have read some of your thoughts and know of your passion for life, family, friends and people you don't yet know. I always learn from this forum, not only the answers to questions posed, but see the really kind and interested people who have patience enough to answer those questions.
I have this impression that you have lived your life as someone who brings joy to his family, friends and this hobby.
Therefore, please accept my best wishes and hopes that you recover soon so that your family, your friends and those who have not yet met you have you back in full form. I look forward to having the pleasure of reading of your recovery and your always entertaining comments, answers and observations.
Get well soon,
Manny Levin
Marty; you have been and still are in my prayers. I said it before, they say you are a tough SOB. God will keep you tough and you will beat this and be well.
I'll keep you in my prayers so you get well soon!

Hi Marty,
Even though I have not had the pleasure of meeting you in person, I have enjoyed and learned from every one of your posts. The power of Prayer is awesome! I know as I speak from experience. Hoping for a speedy recovery. You, and your family and friends are in my thoughts and Prayers.
Best,
Joe Gozzo
Marty,
You are one of the really good people in this hobby and you have been a good friend to me over the years and I thank you for that. I am blessed to know you.
Hey, I want to see you at York this October! I hope the Good Lord lets it happen. I figure a few prayers for you on a regular basis can't hurt, so I am doing that. As Alan Arnold said earlier, anything you need, please let us know, we want to help.
Hope to see you in October.

Marty and I thank you all for your kind words and prayers. God willing, he'll be doing better and we will be able to attend York in the fall.
That's great to hear Dotty, I really look forward to seeing you folks there. I think we universally hope that Marty is back to 100% soon.

Definitely need you at York. How else are the rest of us going to get a full head of steam. Get well.
Glad to hear Marty is doing better. Been worried about him for a while now, I have been praying too.
Marty and Dotty,
You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Just a quick post. Marty is not doing better or OK right now. It's too early in his treatment to know if the radiation will shrink the tumor in his leg (that is causing the blood clots) or the chemotherapy will slow down the growth of the cancer. It has spread to his lungs so is now considered stage 4 sarcoma. We really won't know until later this summer, after the first round of treatments. He's determined to fight this and it makes it easier knowing all our fellow Forum members are behind us. Thank you all! (BTW: I'm fielding all questions and providing what answers I can. He hasn't felt like talking or texting on the phone, or getting online.)
Thank you Dotty for the update and best wishes to both you and Marty. Stay strong and positive.
I am praying for you Marty & Dotty.
Marty, sending prayers through our overhead wires to yours. Thank God you have Dotty and hundreds of wonderful people on this forum thinking and praying for you. Can't wait to see you running trains again. Thinking of you always. Don & Vicky
Dotty,
Sad to hear this. My best wishes to you and Marty.

Hi Dotty and Marty, Thank You for your kind update concerning Marty’s present condition, your friends in Tennessee/Kentucky/Indiana will be praying for Marty to get better as quick as possible. Prayers are powerful and so is Marty. I watch Marty on the DVD ‘s often, his layout is a Crowd Pleaser, and the Crowds praying for Marty to. Best Regards, Thank You for being there for Marty. Your friend, Leapin Larry Levin
Marty, As a stage 4 survivor, I can speak to the therapeutic and curative properties of "workin' on the railroad". St. Thomas Aquinas said "work is prayer" so I encourage you to invest both emotional and physical energy in your magnificent pike. During my recuperation it worked wonders. Having met you and Dotty at the Big E, several years ago, I know you have both the motivation and support to overcome this challenge. And besides, anybody who can build working catenary can do anything! Good luck to you both.
My prayers are with you Marty and Dotty; you can do it; God Bless!
