He was born on August 14, 1964, to parents, John and Patricia Martin. David grew up in Cleveland, OH with his three brothers and sister. He joined the Army in 1992 and honorably served our country.

David is survived by his loving wife, Sheri; his daughter, Elizabeth; his mother, Patricia Martin; his siblings, John Martin, Joyce Fyfe, Scott Martin, and Gregg Martin; and a host of other friends and family.  He is preceded in death by his father, John Martin.
