On March 21, 2019, Martin peacefully slipped away from Earth to Heaven.
Born February 26, 1931 in Edmonton and married to Louise (nee Holsted) for 46 years. He will be dearly missed by his brother John (Jean), several cousins, nieces, nephews and friends. Martin was predeceased by his wife Louise, his parents, Caroline & Victor, sisters Jo (Lou) Gall, Liz (Bill) Rackel, and Barb (John) Melnyk, nephews Clyde Rackel and Douglas Boychuk, great-niece Courtney Rackel, and great-nephew Josh Grant.
Thank you to the staff of Unit 17 at the Sturgeon Community Hospital for their wonderful care and compassion.
In lieu of monetary donations, a random act of kindness in Martin’s honour is appreciated.
