Leonard "Martin" Boyd

Leonard Martin Boyd “Martin” age 71 of Albion passed away on Monday, April 10, 2023 at his home under the loving care of his family and Gentiva Hospice. He was born June 14, 1951 in Mercedes, TX the son of William Leonard and Betty Lou (Stice) Boyd. Martin was preceded in death by both parents; his father in 2003 and mother in 2012.

Martin served our country honorably in the United States Marine Corps from 1969-1972. He was employed most of his working life as a surveyor for Exxon Mobil but also worked at Starr Commonwealth for 5 years and was employed as an Assessor for Albion and Marshall areas for some time.
