Hey Uncle Pete, I still wonder how it is in heaven. Now I am in college at the University of Texas at El Paso but I know you know that. This semester I am taking sixteen hours and it is starting to be a lot of work but I know how proud you would be of me so I continue to work hard and do my best. Last semester I made the deans list and my GPA is at a 3.75. I hope that I make you proud each and every day. - Love Adrianna Lorraine Martinez

He smiled a lot.Im praying over the entire Martinez family that the lord will stand by each and every one of you throug this challenging time Heartfell sorrow

Pete is the bravest and most courageous person I know. He fought the cancer head-on and never questioned, "Why me?". Pete grew closer to God and brought the rest of the family with him. Pete's spiritual strength saved many souls. I love you my brother.

Irene every time your heart beats you know Pete is with you. He is your angel. And he is in heaven rejoicing.
We Love You,

Seems like yesterday I remember when Pete was born,just a few weeks before our daughter Laura was born. We have many fond memories of Pete being Tia Louisa's(my mother),favorite nephew and she was so proud of Pete and Irene. They would always visit her. Pete was such a family man and a real gentleman. Our condolences to Nana and all my cousins and their families. Our hearts and prayers go out to all. God Bless my familia. With love, Julian,Maria and Spike.

Martinez Family,
I am very sorry for the lost of uncle Pete. He was a great person. I will always remember the good times we had with him. Like when Markie, Jacob, and me would play basketball with him. Also when he would help me out and give me advice. He was like an uncle to me.

Love,
Humberto a family friend

Pete, it still doesn't seem real to me that you're gone. I know that you're in a place where there is no more pain, where there's a banquet of food waiting for you and where you'll see dad, granny, and Ata. God bless you, Pete and I know I'll see you again. Love Always, Del
