My friend, former law partner, and fellow judge, Marty, (the Honorable Martin E. Kravarik) died on April 4. I was unaware of his death until it was too late for me to return from vacation for his funeral.

In any event, I would not have been able to attend because the calling hours and funeral services fell on the last days of Passover. Marty would have understood, because above all he was a deeply religious man. Not necessarily a man who cared much about the outward trappings of religion, but a man who lived the tenets of his faith. And that was exhibited in every aspect of his life. He was a devoted husband, father and grandfather, and served our country as an Air Force pilot for five years.
