Juan Jose Martinez

Juan shared a beautiful life with his wife Elidia Leticia Martinez, whom he married in Laredo, Tamaulipas. Together, they built a loving family and raised three children. A dedicated and hardworking man, Juan devoted 38 years of service to the City of University Park, contributing to a community that became close to his heart.

Beyond his career, Juan had a deep passion for classic cars, spending his spare time restoring them and taking great pride in his work. He found joy in life’s simple moments whether it was with his family, watching movies, sharing meals, and traveling to his favorite places in Mexico.

Those who knew Juan will remember his sense of humor, generous spirit and unwavering kindness. He had a heart that welcomed everyone, always ready to lend a helping hand. His warmth and love made him a cherished presence in the lives of his family and friends.

Juan is survived by a large and loving network of family and friends, who will forever miss his wisdom and loving support. His legacy of humility and generosity will live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know him.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to theaverifoundation.org in Juan’s memory, honoring his compassionate spirit and dedication to helping others.

He will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
