Steve Edward Martin

Steve Edward Martin, a cherished father, grandfather, and friend, passed away on December 5, 2025, at the age of 80. Born on December 30, 1944, Steven led a life characterized by his deep patriotism, vibrant spirit, and a love for laughter. His genuine warmth and ability to connect with people earned him a reputation as someone who never met a stranger.

Steve was preceded in death by his devoted wife, Helen Martin; his daughter, Stephanie Martin; his parents, James and Eloise Martin; and his brother, James Wesley Martin.

Steve dedicated 32 years of his life to General Motors, where he not only contributed his skills but also stood proudly as a representative for Union Workers. His commitment to his work was matched only by his devotion to his family, particularly his grandchildren, who brought immense joy to his life.

He is survived by his son and daughter-in-law, Steve (Kim) Martin, along with his beloved grandchildren: Tanner (Shana) Martin, Nash Martin, Zach Crowley, and Erica Vinson. They will remember him for his infectious laughter and the countless memories they created together.
