Juan D. Martinez needs us now.

Hi my name is Maria Orozco, and I was honored to care for a great man that has earned his wings. Our friend, Juan D. Martinez, passed in his sleep. He was a wonderful friend, a great community advocate, and a walking history book of Salinas Valley history. His whole life was about community and making life better for others, educating people on the rich history of our valley, always ready to help anyone in need and being a true friend. Thank you to everyone who took the time to visit him. Your visits were the highlights of his final days.

Now it’s time to make sure he has the funeral services he deserves. Your donation will help make sure Juan is given the respect and send off he would have liked. If you would like to donate towards his services, you may donate on GoFundMe or Venmo me at Maria Orozco. Please put "Funeral Donation ". You may also contact Lupe Covarrubias-Martinez and she will pick up your donation.

Thank you in advance.
