Dion was a very nice, polite man with a gentle, sincerely kind demeanor. It was always a joy to hear his voice answering the phone when making an  appointment. He will be greatly missed by your clients as well. 
God bless to the Martin family, Pam,  and all of his loved ones.

I’m sincerely sorry to hear of Dion’s passing   While I only had the pleasure of seeing Dion  once a year for tax preparation purposes, it was a pleasure.  He always had a smile and was welcoming.  Prayers for your family’s comfort during this difficult time.  May you rest in peace Dion.

I am so sorry for your loss. My sympathy to Gene and Sheri and the entire family…there are really no words. May your warm memories of Dion bring you comfort in your time of grief.

Our deepest condolences to your family. Sending you prayers and comfort in this difficult time. Hugs.

We are going to miss Dion on our yearly visits to have our taxes completed.  Joan being 94 was always happy to see him and his laughter and joking with her. I know he is looking down on us with that infectious smile and sharing stories .

I am sad we will miss Dion and happy we were able to get to know him if only once a year for an hour or two.

God Bless you all,
Joan Moss, Marsha Mullera and Chelsea Mullera

My deepest and most sincere condolences go out to all of the Martin family for a loss suffered way to early. 

   I was fortunate to call Dion a good friend for 40 years. We shared a lot of good times. Everything from sharing season tickets to the Runnin’ Rebels, deep sea fishing, marathon sessions of Boggle, fantasy football, which included regular get togethers on Sunday mornings, and countless games of one-on-one basketball (I even faced and endured his dreaded “underhand shot”).  Like others,  I didn’t see him as often over the last few years, but whenever I did, he always told me how we were “lifelong friends” as he squeezed in too close when sitting down next to me. 

   Dion my friend, you have left us all too soon, but fortunately, you will also live on through us all for as long as we’re here. We’ll miss your smile and dynamic personality, but we’ll always remember you and talk about you, and consider ourselves lucky to have known you at all. Go Rebels!!

While many people dread filling taxes each year I always looked forward to meeting with Dion to file ours.  He was always easy going and comical but was also very knowledgeable about the new tax laws.  Going to miss my annual meetings with him.

Our sincere condolences,
Nick and Gina Lalli

So sorry for your loss. I considered Dion a friend. He hasdone my taxes for over ten years and always made an unpleasant experience fun.   Patti Manthei

To the Martin Family, Friends, Loved Ones & All who new Dion. I cannot express the sadness & void in my heart where a Brother once occupied a huge space,  and still does. Dion was a very close & personal friend of mine since 1984. From hanging out at the Gas Station, going to Rebel Football & Basketball games, numerous Buffets (hundreds, lol), frisbee golf, fishing, road trips, NFL Football & a slew of other fun activities,... Dion was one hell of a great guy & will be missed and thought of every day for the rest of my life. I wish this portion of this day wasn't happening 😪. Love & miss ya Brother. Sincerely & sadly, Phil Grippaldi (Gripper).

My Prayers go to the Friends & Family,  Dion was always great with people. May He Rest In Peace.

Our deepest sympathies to you & your family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. Sending  love & support.

Praying  for family.  I am sorry for your loss
 He will be miss.

Dale and I are deeply heart broken. We always looked forward to tax time because of Dion. Laughter was the goal using up his time as you didn't want to leave. Checking out his pin wall, and 
a surprise one time nude photo shoot outside his window was quite a laugh fest for all three of us. Our family has lost a dear friend that we shared our life with once a year. May he rest in peace. Sincerely,  Dale and Joy Alexander.

The loss of Dion, who was considered a brother and one of “The Boyz” is devastating.  Our condolences go out to the family, of course, but also to everyone touched by Dion.  There were so many!  

I met Dion in 1984 while working at Triangle Service (Merv’s Exxon), or as we eventually called it, “The Gazhole.”  Dion and I became fast friends and shared many of the same interests.  As time moved on, I didn’t see Dion as much, but when we talked on the phone or saw each other in person, there was never any gap—it was like we had seen each other the day before.  I will miss Dion very much and my love goes out to him and the Martin family.

Sending prayers & light to The Martin family for the loss of your beloved, Dion. May he rest peacefully in forever paradise.

Dion was such a wonderful person. He was full of charisma, jovial, and kind. He was always such an encourager. 
He prepared my taxes for more than 10 year and while we only interacted annually, he made a huge impact. 
My deepest condolences to the family and friends of this great man.

I send all my deepest condolence to all the family 
Rest in peace dear Dion

You have my deepest condolences and prayers. Dion was my landlord, tax guy and my friend. I'm still in shock and wish that I could have had the opportunity to at least say goodbye. The last time I saw Dion was  at my wedding just this past September. It touched my heart that he made a special attempt to be there. I can't believe he's gone!!

To the Martin family Dion did my taxes for many years and was such a nice man. I’m so sorry for your loss..

My very dear friend and a constant in my life for 40 years.  Dion Martin believed in me and always had my back 100%.  I have so many memories and they are all good ones.  He is, and will always be missed by myself and a whole lot of other. He was a rockstar and didn't even know it.

I'm sorry for your loss,  he was a good friend of mine and a nice guy. You and your family will be  in my prayers  🙏.
