Anne, Lois, Chip and Jane. Our deepest condolences on your loss. Bobbie and I and the kids spent many a happy hour with your family. Your husband/dad was a fine man who will be remembered by many here at the Beach. When all is said and done about Tommy, the song "My Way" will be the last verse.
Dearest Ann, Chip, Lois, and Janie,
Words cannot express the sadness we feel for your loss. Tommy was always "Uncle Tommy" to us as we grew up with you guys for two weeks each summer until daddy retired us to Myrtle Beach. Tommy was always jovial and smiling and laughing and us kids relished our sleepovers at The Martins! He fussed and laughed when Chip got the car towed that night at the Pavillion, and he loving scoopedly him up after little brother George ran the mini bike into a tree. You all welcomed us to Coastal Academy, and after we all graduated and moved on with our lives, Tommy and Ann would continue to keep us in the know with what the Martins were up to. Tommy will be missed by all who were lucky enough to have known him, especially those of us with many great memories. Our thoughts continue to be with each of you,
Love, Beth Branch Howell, Barbara Branch Vereen, and "Little" George Ellis Branch
My warmest condolences to the Martin family.
I grew up in Myrtle Beach along with "Tommy", knew his brothers, his father and mother, all good people.
I remember Tommy as a cordial, happy and outgoing person with a smile for everyone. It seemed he never met a stranger. That memory of him will stay with me and surely with all of his friends and family.
