Memories and Condolences
for Miguel Martinez

Not sure what to say?





We were shocked when Tom Vodopick called from AZ to tell us the sad news. Now we understand why Mike never came back to finish our hall carpet. We have such great memories of times at B&E's, his 299 game and weekends at his bar. He will NEVER be forgotten by us.

To the Martinez family, I only knew Tequila Mike and sons thru Sunday sports at his bar across from Kozy park. Our Texas-New Mexico meeting never materialized, but the memories of the good times in Milwaukee will never fade. He was a giant entertainer and a genuinely good friend. You're in my prayers, Joe Krzyzanowski
