WATERMAN, Martin Conrad - (November 20, 1941 – March 18, 2021)
To my dearest Martin, who I affectionately named “Uncle Buck” and will greatly miss.
We met so long ago at a Poker Game. At that time, I was feeling so broken and was actually crying inside. After spending time with you at the game (and beating you with my winning poker hand), all I could think about was the laughter and how funny you were. You lifted my spirit immediately and I felt better than I had in months. We exchanged numbers and started dating shortly after.
