Mr. Ramon Martinez

El Sr. Ramón Martínez, de 83 años, de Rome, Georgia, falleció el lunes 15 de septiembre de 2025, en su residencia rodeado de su familia.

El Sr. Martínez nació en Villa Juárez, SLP, México, el 18 de septiembre de 1941, hijo de los difuntos Juan Martínez Corona y Elisa Reyes Varocio. Además de sus padres, le precedieron en la muerte varios hermanos. El Sr. Martínez era un proveedor dedicado para su familia y dedicó su carrera a la construcción. Era duro, pero a la vez amable, y "si hubiera una palabra que lo definiera, sería humilde". Agradecía cada aspecto de la vida y siempre era considerado y compasivo con los demás. Disfrutaba de sus amigos y era un buen amigo para quienes tuvieron la suerte de conocerlo. Sin embargo, sus mejores momentos los pasó creando recuerdos con su familia. De joven, jugaba béisbol y le encantaba compartir sus historias más alocadas con su familia, haciéndoles reír siempre. Más adelante, disfrutó de los Bravos de Roma y los Bravos de Atlanta, resolviendo crucigramas, pasando tiempo con su esposa en el jardín, jugando al fútbol y amaba ver boxeo los viernes por la noche.Por encima de todo, su fe era lo más importante: su corazón era bondadoso y generoso, y su amor por ayudar a los demás se evidenciaba en su devoción a la iglesia y al servicio a Dios. A menudo lo encontrabas leyendo la Biblia o alguno de sus libros cristianos favoritos. Su familia lo conocía como un gran líder y predicaba con el ejemplo. Tenía una hermosa sonrisa que, al sonreír, dejaba escapar pequeños rayos de sol. Fue su sonrisa la que atrajo la atención de su amada esposa. Después de conocerse en la iglesia, compartieron una vida maravillosa. Pasó 64 años con su amada novia, Esperanza. Juntos, construyeron su matrimonio de 59 años sobre el amor y perseveraron en su fe. El Sr. Martínez era un devoto feligrés de la Iglesia Católica de Santa María.

Le sobreviven su esposa, la Sra. Esperanza Martínez, residente de Rome; sus cuatro hijos: José Ramón Martínez; Noé Martínez, Raúl Northcutt y Juan de Dios Martínez; sus tres hijas: Elisa Martínez, Ma. Maribel Martínez-Abundez y Juanita Martínez; sus trece nietos; sus seis bisnietos; y sus numerosos hermanos y hermanas.Se celebrará una misa de entierro cristiano el viernes 19 de septiembre de 2025 a las 10:30 a. m. en la iglesia católica de Santa María, presidida por el padre Salomón García. El entierro se realizará posteriormente en el cementerio de Oaknoll.

La familia recibirá a sus amigos el jueves 18 de septiembre de 17:00 a 20:00 h en la funeraria.

In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by several siblings. Mr. Martinez was a dedicated provider to his family, and spent his career in the construction business. He was tough, yet gentle and “if he was one word, the word that defined him was humble”. He was grateful for every aspect of life and was always considerate and compassionate towards others. He enjoyed his friends, and was a good friend to those lucky enough to know him. His best times though were spent making memories with his family. In his younger years, he played baseball and loved to share his wildest stories with his family, always causing them to laugh. Later in life, he enjoyed the Rome Braves, the Atlanta Braves, working crossword puzzles, spending time with his wife in their garden, playing soccer, and loved watching Friday night boxing. Above all, his faith was most important- his heart was kind and generous, his love for helping others was evident by his devotion to his church and serving God. You would often find him reading his Bible or some of his favorite Christian books. He was known by his family as a great leader and led by example. He had a beautiful smile that when he smiled little rays of sunshine just poured out. It was his smile that first made his loving wife notice him. After meeting at church, they shared a wonderful life together. He spent 64 years with his loving sweetheart, Esperanza. Together they built their marriage of 59 years on love and continued their faith. Mr. Martinez was a devoted parishioner of St. Mary’s Catholic Church.
