Martin N. "Tino" Perez

Now I can have a smile every time I think of a special memory of Martin. There is no doubt in my mind that with a soul as pure as his that he is now in the most spectacular garden anyone could ever imagine. I can still see his great smile even when he was being ornery.

I will always miss my little buddy. He was always kind and loving, and actually taught many of us to be just as kind and caring. I am glad that I was able to be with him and he was not alone at his passing. I was meant to be there with my buddy. I enjoy the old photos of our times together and the memories will never fade.

I grew up with Martin and the family. It kills me that I just heard of his passing while celebrating my 50th birthday. My condlences to his mother & father, (Lena & Al), Sister (Matilda), and brothers (Marcos,Miguel, & Mauricio). May god bless each of you as we all await to meet again in heaven.

"Mr. Perez was my 6th grade teacher at Tuller, and still to this day through middle school, high school. and college was one of the best teachers I've ever had. It pains me I didn't hear about this until after the funeral services. I wish I could have been there. My condolences go out to the Perez Family. "

I am so glad that we had the chance to be good friends. Martin taught all of us how to be compassionate when we were all too immature to realize. We needed him more than he needed us. All of us will miss him dearly, and hope that our sorrow can soon turn to smiles and laughter. Thanks for...
