Jonathan was the comic relief to his friends and family. He was always able to find humor in everyday life. What he loved most were his kids and being a loving father. He enjoyed celebrating them every chance he got. From teaching them to drive to volunteering as a member of watch D.O.G.S (Dads of Great Students). Jonathan had a great lighthearted nature and was often referred to as Katrina's 7th child by friends and family. He kept the routine of Monday date nights with his wife and spent days off playing online video games with his brother and best friend Michael. Jonathan enjoyed comic books and anything related to Marvel or DC Comics and horror related thrillers. He would make yearly trips to frightmare weekend with his best buddy Raul. He never missed out on a chance to fire up the grill on the patio and entertain friends and family.

Jonathan joined the Walmart IDC 7042 team in Baytown, TX in 2010 after switching over from a supervisor position with UTI. He was the traffic area manager at the time of his death. His work team was his extended family and we take special note of his deceased longtime mentor Gary Marshall. Jonathan also enjoyed joining in the antics that the traffic office is known for.

So many extended family members, aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews and friends will miss their beloved family member and friend.

Honorary Pallbearers include Michael V. Martinez Jr., Adrian L. Martinez, Frank Benita, David Sanchez, Timothy J. Helcl II, Raul Garza, and Ken Wiltz.
