Adam Martin Obituary
Born in Bremerhaven, Germany to Joseph Brian Martin and Beverly Dawn Smith, his youngest days were spent in motion as a military child on the go. Finally settling in Austin, Texas, he thrived during his childhood, running wild with his siblings and friends. Always the life of the party, Adam was full of energy, fearless, and charismatic. His innate sense of style was evident from a young age, and he often dressed in a way that reflected his radiating confidence.
During his young adult life, Adam lived in Pennsylvania, where he explored his passion for music as "Tex Ritter" a member of the group "Head of Command" and he worked in sales. Adam and his family returned to the Central Texas area where he spent his final years near what he felt was his hometown of Austin, raising his two daughters. He will be remembered for his spirited nature and the immense joy and love he had for his girls.
Adam is preceded in death by his father, Joseph Brian Martin; his maternal grandparents, Billy and Betty Smith; his paternal grandparents, Richard Martin and Julia Frisby; and his uncles Nicholas Martin and D.D. Smith.
Adam lives on through his beautiful daughters, Nevaeh Starr and Ellora Renee Martin, who are the light of his life and his proudest legacy. He is also survived by his mother, Dawn Smith (Scott Manuel); his brothers Richard and Justin Martin, his sister, Cheyenne Lambert; his nieces Kya Spalding and Phoebe Lambert; and his nephews Julian, Caleb, Alex, and Regan Martin, and Neeko Lambert.
There will be a Celebration of Life service on May 31, 2025, at 11:30 a.m. Please join his family and friends in honoring his vibrant spirit and find peace in the love and support of one another. The celebration will take place at one of Adam's favorite places as a child, Walnut Creek Metro Park, 12138 N Lamar Blvd, in Austin, Texas. Please wear your brightest colors and come prepared to share music, memories, stories, or moments of the incredible life he shared with us. Lunch and refreshments will be served.
In lieu of flowers please donate to the charity of your choice and hug your friends and family.
