Antonio Martinez Sanchez, de 61 años, residente de Asheboro, Carolina del Norte, falleció el 27 de junio de 2025 en Greensboro, NC.

Antonio nació el 11 de Febrero de 1964 en Guanajuato, México, hijo de Ramón Martínez y Epigmenia Sánchez. Era un hombre alegre y lleno de vida, siempre bromeando con todos y contagiando alegría dondequiera que iba. Le encantaba contar historias a sus nietos y disfrutaba llevárselos a comer—momentos que ellos recordarán con cariño.

Estuvo casado 39 hermosos años con el amor de su vida, María Arredondo. Antonio amaba profundamente a su familia y también a sus animales. Su perro Apolo fue su compañero inseparable, siempre a su lado.

Sus amigos lo recordarán por las reuniones compartidas, las historias que contaba y la calidez que traía a cada momento. Su bondad, su sentido del humor y su amor dejarán una huella eterna en quienes lo conocieron.

Le preceden en la muerte su padre, Ramón Martínez, y su hermana, Alicia Martínez.

Le sobreviven su esposa, María Arredondo; sus hijos, Antonio Martínez, Adán Martínez y Alan Martínez; su nuera, Maribel Ortega; sus nietos, Carlos Ortega, Alexa Martínez y Adán Martínez; y su madre, Epigmenia Sánchez.

La Misa Funeral se celebrará el sábado 5 de Julio a las 11:00 am en la Capilla Glenn “Mac” Pugh, con el Padre Juan Timlin y el Diácono Enedino Aquino oficiando. El entierro se llevará a cabo en el cementerio New Hope Memorial Gardens inmediatamente después de la misa
