It is with a heavy heart that we leave this message.   Martin is and always will be cherished and loved by our family and will always be in our hearts. He was our son in so many ways other than his marriage to our daughter. Martin has been apart of our family since 2004 when he and Jess started dating in grade 12.  He was her Prom date. Since that time their love for each only grew stronger. They married in Mexico in 2013. It stin arted out as Mom, Dad said if i wanted to get married lets make it a destination wedding. We were already planning to go to Mexico,  I said that would be great, little unbeknown to us that our usual group of 18 would quickly grow into a group of 54 people. The wedding took place on the beach under a beautiful wicker dome canopy. Martin looked very dapper and had that smile that we all have come to know and love. The song they chose (i wanna hold your hand) by the Beatles brought many  to tears. Martin we will always and forever want to hold your hand.
