Marcus Martin Obituary
Perry, GA- Marcus Eugene "Marc" Martin, 45, passed away on Friday, June 12, 2015. Funeral Services will be held on Wednesday, June 17, 2015, at 2:00 p.m. at First Baptist Church of Perry. A Private Interment in the Martin/Meadows Cemetery in Hawkinsville will be held immediately following the service. The family will receive friends on Wednesday, June 17, 2015, from 12:00 noon until 2:00 p.m., preceding the service, in the sanctuary at the church. Friends are also welcome to visit with the family at the Martin home. In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully requests memorial contributions to The House of God Campaign, First Baptist Church of Perry, 1105 Main Street, Perry, GA 31069 or to the donor's favorite charity.
Marc was born and raised in Hawkinsville and was a 1988 Graduate of Hawkinsville High School. He graduated from Georgia Southern University in 1992, and later received a Master's Degree in Business Administration from Georgia Southwestern College and State University. Marc was an active member of First Baptist Church of Perry where he was a Deacon and a member of the Young Adult Sunday School Department. He was an Awana Commander for several years and served on multiple committees at the church through the years. Marc was very involved in his community as a member of the Kiwanis Club and an active member of Perry Area Chamber of Commerce. He has served in various capacities on several committees with the Chamber and is a recent Past President. While his accomplishments were many, Marc's greatest treasures in this life were his faith in God, his family, and his friends. He was a devout Christian, a loving husband, a devoted father, a wonderful son, brother, and friend. His kindness, gentle nature, and friendly smile will be dearly missed by all who loved and knew him. Marc was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Martin, Jr.; his maternal grandfather, Mr. Willard Thomas Boling, Sr.; his uncle, Willard Boling, Jr.; and his cousins, Lana Meadows, Leah Meadows, and "Boots" Boling, III.
Left to cherish the memories of Marc are his loving and devoted wife of 19 years, Robin Fowler Martin of Perry; his sons, Daniel Martin and Levi Martin, both of Perry; his parents, Barry and Alice Martin of Hawkinsville; his sisters, Monica Martin Bass (Heath) and Mitzi Martin, both of Hawkinsville; his maternal grandmother, Nora Rhodes Boling; his parents-in-law, Ken and Tommie Fowler of Hawkinsville; his brother-in-law, Brian Fowler (Julie) of Hawkinsville; 4 nephews; a niece; a great-nephew; and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Condolences for the family may be left in the online guestbook at www.watsonhunt.com. Watson-Hunt Funeral Home has been entrusted with the arrangements.

I thought of you today,
but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday,
and days before that too.
I think of you in silence,
and often speak your name.
All I have are memories and
your picture in a frame.
Your memory is a keepsake
from which I'll never part.
God has you in His arms,
I have you in my heart...

My heart is heavy thinking of the pain that Marc's family and friends must be feeling now. These last few days my thoughts have gone back to many years passed of a sweet little brown-haired boy that rode the school bus with his sisters, me, my sisters, my cousins and many other kids from the Midway community. Once we were grown, I lost touch with Marc and only saw him occasionally out and about. He was still the same sweet young man I remembered and this is how I'll always remember him, with the same sweet smile. Though no words can ease your pain, please know that many are praying for you now and will continue in the days ahead.

Mr. Barry, Miss Alice, Monica And Mitzi. Ginger and I are so very sorry for your loss. Mark was truly a great guy, although he and I hadn't seen each other in many years I still held Mark as a close friend as he and I actually did grow up together, both in school and as neighbors in our loving little community of Midway. Being both sons of Farmers that which is what truly brought us closer as friends because we wanted so much to be like our daddy's!! Mark will be missed by the many many hearts that he touched in his short time here, but he has now moved on to serve a much higher purpose, Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May God Bless you all in this most trying of times.
