Juan Manuel "Changodie" Martinez

August 22, 1969 – October 12, 2026

It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Juan Manuel Martinez, who passed away on October 12, 2026, at the age of 57.

Juan was a loving and caring father, devoted husband, cherished brother, and beloved family member whose life touched the hearts of so many. His love for his family was immeasurable, and his presence brought a special kind of love that will never be forgotten.

He leaves behind his loving wife Nancy, mother Aurora, and his four beloved children, Janece, Xenia, Xavier, and Johnny, who love him more than anything in this world. He was a deeply loved father, and the bond they shared with him will forever remain in their hearts. Although his passing has left an emptiness that words cannot describe, the love he gave them will continue to live on through them every day.

Juan is also survived by his four sisters, Maria, Lourdes, Veronica, and Lilliana, along with numerous extended family members who loved him dearly and will forever cherish the memories they shared with him.

As his family grieves this heartbreaking loss, they find comfort in the hope that he is now resting peacefully in the arms of the Lord. Though their hearts are broken, they hold on to their faith and the promise that love never truly ends.

His passing leaves an emptiness that words cannot describe. The sound of his laughter, his jokes, his dancing, and the happiness he felt when surrounded by his family will be deeply missed. Life will never be quite the same without him, but the love he gave and the memories he created will remain in the hearts of those who knew him.

You were loved beyond words and will be missed beyond measure. Your family will carry your love in their hearts forever, holding on to the memories, the moments, and the bond that death can never take away.

Until we meet again, may you rest peacefully in God’s loving arms. Your family will continue to love you, honor you, and keep your memory alive forever.

You may be gone from our sight, Dad, but you will never be gone from our hearts. We love you endlessly, and until we meet again, may God hold you close.

"7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing."

2 Timothy 4:7-8 NIV - 7
