Martin Binder

We lived down the street from the Binders when we've first moved to Yuma. I remember having the run of the neighborhood when I was 4-5 years old and the Binder house was always open to me. When I was married in 1985, my father asked Martin to make me a heart shaped cutting board which I still have and treasure. Truly a sweet and patient man. He and Katie were so memorable.

The most gifted cabinet maker I ever knew. I gave Martin the concept I was looking for when opening the Sweet Shoppe Candies store in Yuma (in the early 80's) and Martin built the most amazing custom candy cabinets...different than I expected and far superior than I dreamed. He was such a hard worker and was faithful to acknowledge Christ who gifted him. RIP Martin.

Such sad news. God cares for you and will surely comfort you during this painful time.

I've known Martin for almost 70 years, he and Eldon were such close friends, they were often mistaken as brothers during our early years at Calvary Lutheran. Our families shared many happy times over the years, I treasure these joyful memories! Thinking of all of you...Myrtle Paulsen

Patti and Richard, I am sorry for your loss. I am thinking of you.

We became friends with Martin while living in Pinetop. He would stop by often while taking his walks and was always a great 'supervisor' when the neighbors were working on a project. He was one of a kind and one of the nicest people you could want to know. We were fortunate to visit with him just a few months ago and will always remember him with great fondness. To Richard and all of the family we send our deepest condolences.
