Arnulfo was born on March 29, 1960 to Arnulfo, Sr. and Margarita Martinez. He was a man who held onto his faith in Christ with him until his last days. A family man who provided and worked long hard days for Ilcor for 20+ years. He was an avid sports fan, enjoyed family traditions and created lasting memories with family and friends. He had a love for fishing and sharing his life stories because boy did he have stories for days. Let’s not forget his pit master skills for barbecue on the weekends, he was someone you could count on during your highest and lowest moments. There was not a person he did not befriend and left an everlasting impression on everyone he met. He adored and loved all his grandchildren, especially his little princess, Ivy. He truly was the best grandpa.
Proceeding him in peace are his parents, Arnulfo and Margaret Martinez; grandchild, Adelina Rose Perez; and his beloved pet, Majic.
Arnulfo’s loving spirit is carried on by his wife, 28 years together, 19 years married, Jeannette Martinez; daughters, Jacquelyn Garcia and Tracey Longoria; grandchildren, Lauryn Cox, James Cox and Nathan Cox; and two great-grandchildren, Romeo Mendoza and Ivy Rodela; siblings, Christina Garcia, Jaime Martinez, Linda Rodriguez, Javier Martinez, Sr., Rosemary Martinez and Fidencio Vasquez. As well as numerous aunts, nieces and nephews and God children.
The family would like to express their sincere gratitude and appreciation to Texas Oncology and The Christopher House for their amazing care during this journey.
