My name is Megan Rendon. I am making this GoFundMe for my late coworker/friend Samuel Martinez on behalf of the AutoZone Family. We are raising money to help his family he unexpectedly left behind after a car accident took his life so suddenly on 08/22/2025. We will be making sure all funds go to the family. If you want to donate anything else like food, please contact me and we will accept gift cards to any major grocery store. I also wrote a eulogy since there will not be a service.

Farewell to a dear friend....

A colleague, a family, a friend.

That's Samuel Martinez 'till the end.

He had a very grateful heart,

That is why he was loved from the start.

A very loving husband,

One of the most responsible fathers and men.

He would do anything for his family

And gave the best that he could be.

He did everything and worked hard to reach for his dreams and reap a reward,

With so much dedication and passion,

He left a big contribution to our mission.

It's so sad we were not able to say goodbye,

Especially his children and wife who couldn't help but cry.

Thank you so much for all the memories,

There's a lot of moments we can reminisce.

You may now rest in peace, in tranquility,

Worry no more, we'll be here for your family.

Anything donated will help this family. Sam was the main breadwinner. Thank you again to everyone wanting to help. I am sure the family truly appreciates you.
