Description
This
is the story of Richard Martorano, or Motts. He had a modest
upbringing being raised in the poorer sections of Camden, NJ.
As a child he was quite inquisitive, very bright and a real
scoundrel. He and his older brother Sonny were quite a
handful. Throughout school, Motts demonstrated intelligence,
athleticism and a penchant for pranks. He brought his talents
and his unquenchable sense of humor with him during his
career. An Italian American raised Roman Catholic, he and his
first wife raised four sons. Over fifteen years ago he moved
to Singapore, converted to Islam and remarried. He and his
second wife reside in Singapore where he continues his long
career in the chemical field. |

with
the grace of a friend
when
you have been graced with the presence of a bona fide friend
an angel has anointed a special soul to look after you
through the darkest of valleys or upon the most treacherous peak
a mighty yet gentle hand reaches out to take yours within its clutch
and you most assuredly know your every journey has been blessed
there
is no danger too daunting lurking wherever the road may bend
we must cherish our guardians reciprocating for the kind acts they do
be caring compassionate and honest with them whenever you speak
chase not those who care treasure them for our hearts have they touched
such a warm enduring bond weathers a lifetimes most challenging tests
