Martin Nastasia Obituary

Martin Anthony Nastasia of Lodi born September 15th 1963 in Eugene Oregon, passed away February 2nd. Marty was loved by many friends. A favorite saying of his was, "We are all friends that we just haven't met yet." He loved to ride his Harley Davidson or Indian motorcycle. He was very active in the MMA helping to change and better the laws for bikers. After years of working at a local winery, Marty invented a better bung for wine barrels, and started his business Ferm-Rite Breathing Bung, which remains successful in the wine industry today. Marty loved his family. Survived by his father Chuck Nastasia, Stepfather Alvin Broux, brothers Clint, Tony, and Ray Nastasia and Alfred Broux, Son Martin Nastasia II, daughters Lacey, Rienna, and Darby Nastasia, step children Joe Jurado and Jennifer Maldonado, five grandchildren, ex-wife and caregiver Jil Nastasia. Proceeded in death by his loving mother Flo Broux. Services are pending. One more rider heaven bound with loud pipes roaring through the pearly gates. Marty is loved dearly and will be missed.
