I met Mr Martin in 1981. I had the pleasure of coaching both daughters and meeting the rest of the family. Mr Martin was instrumental in putting SW Ohio T&F in the national spotlight. He and an excellent support staff developed a great many youngsters into competitive athletes on the local, national and international stage. My condolences to Mrs Martin who was always working right alongside throughout it all. Dwayne, LaVonna, LeBren and Lloyd, you have all produced a great legacy and success. I wish you grace and peace in this time of loss. A great family. Carry on
