Ramie Renee'Martinez

"My love, my laugh, my life" are the words used as her motto before a tragic car accident took the life of our dark-haired beauty, Ramie Renee Martinez, on Thursday, March 18, 2010. Ramie is survived by her parents, Raymon and Robin Hebert Martinez; sister, Raychel Martinez and David Adams Jr. and their daughter, Makenzie Adams, a very special niece, who lovingly referred to Ramie as "Nana"; brother, Robert John; grandmothers, Vicky Perrodin Hebert and Flo Stewart; grandfather, Silver Martinez; uncle and aunts-in-law, Junior and Sandra Martinez, Charlie and Crystal Hebert and Jimmy and Kristie Hebert; aunt and uncle-in-law, Renee (Hebert) and Dr. Nick Arcuri; first cousins, Lindsey, Ally, Carlie, Jessie, Samantha, Morgan, Taylor Hebert, John Robert Hebert II, Niko Arcuri and Justin Martinez; along with a large extended family and friends, especially Megan McCartney, and aunts, Tara Melancon and Susie Guillory. Ramie was preceded in death by her maternal grandfather, John Robert Hebert; and first cousin, Chase Jarreau. Ramie attended Central High School, loved being with her friends and expressing her thoughts in written words. Ramie also was a talented photographer who used the camera to capture the beauty in herself and those around her. Seventeen years wasn't long enough for us, but God has a bigger plan for her.
