Robert Martin Jr Obituary
Bob graduated with an undergraduate degree from Clarkson and furthered his education at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) and the University of South Florida (USF), where he completed his graduate studies. He dedicated his career to engineering in the medical devices sector, working with prominent companies such as Namic, Conmed Linvatec, Kimberly Clark, and Clorox. His expertise in designing medical devices and managing significant projects greatly advanced the field until his retirement in 2018.
An avid outdoorsman, Bob enjoyed gardening, and engaging in adventures like camping and canoeing, which reflected his love for nature and his active spirit.
Bob is survived by his spouse, Elizabeth McGuire; children, Simone Martin, Elwin Martin, and Luc Martin; stepsons, Kyle Gempler and Otto Duerk III; mother, Dolores Martin; and sisters, Audrey Martin Khan, Diane Marie, and Denise LaMay. He was preceded in death by his father, Robert David Martin Sr.
Bob will be remembered for his professional integrity, his zest for life, and the quiet strength he exhibited in every endeavor. His legacy will continue to inspire those who knew him.

Went to Clarkson 4 years with Bob. Particularly enjoyed the Summer of 1981 hanging out on the roof of ZN together. A funny & sweet guy, lots of character and hugely intelligent.

I knew Bob from kindergarten to when we graduated high school. Lost contact with him after that. Until about a year or so ago we connected on Facebook. I'm so sorry the families loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Todd and Kelly Miller Lisbon Class of 81.

I have come to know Bob on Facebook. I've enjoyed his unusual sense of humor which was coupled with rational and charitable attitudes toward people in general. I much regret his passing. (I'm a pastor in Lisbon, NY).
