Recuerdo con gran aprecio a mi amigo y hermano en la fe.Hermosos recuerdos de un gran hombre un buen cristiano gran padre y maravilloso abuelo.Murio con la esperanza en Cristo pronto lo volveremos a ver cuando Jesus descienda en las nubes de los cielos y lo llame a la vida eterna.

My deepest condolences to the Garza family. I was so sadden to hear of Martin's passing. His presence in the Luna family was always warm, positive and full of love. He will be missed by all of us. My last conversation with him was 6 months ago, he spoke of God to me that day, of the love and grace we have through Jesus. I have many memories of him at so many family gatherings through birthdays, births & deaths but I am grateful that our conversation of Christ will be my last memory of him. My heart goes out for your family loss. May the spirit of the Lord who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn" sustain your family during this time. Isaiah 61:1,2
Sincerely,
