I lost my superhero this morning. Marty Sanzottera or Pops as everyone knows him by. Passed at 6 AM this morning due to complications after surgery. Thanks to everyone for the prayers and support. Will let everybody know the funeral arrangements as soon as we get them

Now that I see the picture I know exactly who Pops was.  Makes me sad to see him gone.  We always had some great conversations at STAR or wherever our paths crossed.  RIP Pops.

I didn't really know Pops, but I do remember him, and I feel sadness at his passing.  Condolences to the family and friends.  I'm sure he will be greatly missed.  :(
not all that wander are lost

Like others I didn't know him but recognize the face and probably spoke with him before. Always sad to hear when we've lost one of our members prematurely. 

RIP Pops
