Martin was preceded in death by his parents, two sisters Barbara Ziegler and Nancy Hoover and a brother William J. Joo. Martin was employed as a tree trimmer for 22 years and also worked with wroth iron railings for 15 years. He was a dedicated husband, father and grandfather who collected unique treasures. He was an amazing and selfless dad who was always there for us kids. Even through cancer and other things, he still made time for things and pushed himself. His family meant everything to him. He was a strong, hardworking man that we all looked up to. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Zahoran Funeral Home has been entrusted with arrangements.
