college courses at Minot

Marty married Lisa

Hedstrand and they had

three beautiful daughters:

Amber, Chrissy and Ash-

ley. As time passed, they

grew apart, but Marty

found love again. He mar-

ried Carol Gagnon and

started a new chapter in

his life with Carol, her

daughter and eventually

her granddaughter. Dur-

ing this chapter Marty’s 3

daughters, Amber,

Chrissy, and Ashley, also

gave him 6 awesome

grandchildren. Sadly,

loss for Marty. Over time

he found a new compan-

ion in Susan Zeitz, who

he was able to love and

enjoy the remainder of his

life with.

dist Church.

Marty enjoyed moving

around, whether it was a

short camping trip or ac-

tually packing up and

moving to another state.

He moved to Reno, NV for

a time and also to a

suburb of Cleveland, OH,

just to see what was out

there; but ultimately re-

turned to his home state

after both ventures.

Over the years Marty

held many trades and

usually more than one at

a time, always a hard-

working man! He did

some maintenance and

handyman work, cooked

in various restaurants,

dealt lots of blackjack and

was working on becoming

a master woodworker. At

the time of his passing, he

worked for Scherr’s Ca-

binets & Doors and Aces

Lounge & Casino.

Marty enjoyed midnight

walks in big cities, fixing

his truck and/or bike,

camping, fishing, listen-

ing to music, dancing,

biking, martial arts and

being quirky with the kids

in his life among many

other things.
