Martin was a loving father, devoted grandfather, aerospace engineer, and passionate cyclist. He worked as an aerospace engineer for over 20 years and was known for his kindness, generosity, and genuine care for everyone he met. He cherished his children, Martin and Samantha, and his grandchildren, Leila, Leilani, and Cairo, more than anything. In January 2020, Martin began suffering from severe headaches. After months of seeking answers, he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. During COVID-19, he spent three heartbreaking weeks in the hospital without his family by his side. Following a biopsy, Martin passed away from brain swelling on April 1, 2020. His tumor was later identified as a high-grade malignant neoplasm of the brain. His illness does not define his life. Martin’s love and kindness touched countless lives, and his memory will forever live on through his family and everyone who loved him.
Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever our dad, our grandfather, and our hero!
