Martin Jay Owensby

You will continue to live on in me and all who knew you. I love you and miss you.

I miss you and Anna every second of every day. Nothing in my life will I ever bring me so much happiness and joy that I had when our family was whole and as one. Adam and my glorious grand daughters are my joy now. I wish you both could know them. They are so much like you. Forever in my heart I continue to grieve till the day I too die. I love you.

Martin this day will always be forever the day I lost half of my brain. Please look out for our perfect daughter in every way where ever you two are. I will always love you just for being you. Now my brain is 1/4 functioning. So much crying in my life. I miss you both everyday.

Martin. You were my true and one love. It has been hard living without you these past four years. Sometimes I hear your voice or laugh at one of your jokes . I'm trying but I need you. Half of me is dead too .

I taught Martin computer classes at Greenville Tech continuing Ed 14 years ago. He left such an impression that I thought I would look him up only to see that he has passed on. I can only say that I am saddened and shocked. My thoughts and prays are with his family. He was a genuinely a very kind person that left a lasting impression.

Whether turned by a sneer of contempt.

In the moment of your embracing kindness.

May be meant for us all radiant one.

Is what the universe has opened you as.

You may not think of your wisdom or serenity.

For it flows from regions you cannot explore.

And all who bathe into it are duty bound.

To weep joyously at pure beauty.

-Martin Owensby (1957-2010)
