On Tuesday, Marty's daughter posted about his passing on Facebook:
"We are heartbroken, the greatest man alive has gone on to Heaven. Marty passed peacefully on Thursday the 13th, 2022. My mom and I are devastated by his loss and there is nobody that could ever take his place."
Marty and Elayne haven't performed at the Dresden in almost two years. Ferraro said that he spoke with them often and knew that Marty had been struggling with his health for some time.
