Elmer Lawrence Marting


I only knew Elmer a short time, 50+ years ago. He taught a motivational class. “Success Unlimited “ as I recall. Foremost he was a very good man. What I learned helped me to develop my own potential. Most important lesson…You are what you were when. Thank you Elmer, RIP! To his family my deepest and sincerest condolences.

I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to Elmer's family. He was such an amazing person. I enjoyed working with him through the airport and the museum. He was such a fountain of information. I was so happy when he decided to sell one of his carvings to me for a Christmas gift to my son. He will be greatly missed by sol many and it will be hard to find someone to fill his shoes. May he rest in peace. Barb (Bries) and Jeff Collins.

Carol and family, I just learned that Elmer passed away in Feb. My thoughts are with you and your family. I remember meeting you both when I was doing the Meier genealogy and we met at the museum and enjoyed seeing the wood carvings. My husband visited with Elmer as he was also a pilot and you and I talked about the family history. Grace (Benjegerdes) Keir in MN.
