Martin Christopher Bullock, a beacon of wisdom and courage, passed away peacefully on November 15, 2025, at the age of 49, in his hometown of Fort Walton Beach. Born on November 28, 1976, in the same beautiful city, Martin's life was a testament to loyalty, dedication, and the enduring strength of family bonds.

Predeceased by his father, Glenn W. Bullock, Martin's legacy is carried forward by his loving mother, Gwen Martin Miller, and his devoted stepdad, John C. Miller. His brother, Jeremy D. Bullock, will forever cherish the memories they created together, as will his nephew, Braxson Bullock. Martin's Uncle Robert W. Martin (Judy), Aunt Janet Reeves (Doyle), and his cousins Robby Martin, Jason, Stephen, and Greg Reeves will all deeply miss his presence and guidance.

An alumnus of the University of West Florida, Martin's commitment to education was unwavering. His academic achievements laid a strong foundation for his professional life, where he spent 23 years at Best Buy in Destin. There, Martin was not just an employee but a pillar of the community, known for his wise counsel and courageous spirit, which he brought to every interaction.

Martin's life was characterized by his unwavering dedication to his family and work, his undaunted courage in the face of challenges, and his profound wisdom, which he shared generously. These attributes made him a cherished son, brother, uncle, and friend.

As we say goodbye to Martin Christopher Bullock, we celebrate the indelible mark he left on this world. His spirit, characterized by integrity and tenacity, will live on in the hearts of those who loved him. We find comfort in the memories of his extraordinary life and the knowledge that his legacy will continue to inspire us all.

"I know your life

On earth was troubled

And only you could know the pain

You weren't afraid to face the devil

You were no stranger to the rain

Go rest high on that mountain

Son, you work on Earth is done

Go to heaven a shoutin'

Love for the father and son"
