Services will be at 2:00 PM on Thursday, April 18^th, at Kincannon Memorial Chapel. Burial will follow at Altus City Cemetery under the care of Kincannon Funeral Home and Cremation Service.

Cristian Gabriel Martinez, Jr., beloved son of Shabrail Shermana Sanchez and Cristian Gabriel Martinez weighed 5 pounds, 10 ounces, and was 18 ½ inches long. He will always be remembered as a light and a blessing in his parent’s lives; from the moment they found out they were pregnant to the day they found out he was a boy. Throughout his 8 months in the womb, Jr. showed his personality in such a huge way. He was definitely good at showing his mom his love and that will live in her heart forever. During the first 3D/4D ultrasound Jr. showed his Mommy how handsome and full of life he was. He barely had any room in Mommy’s belly, but he gave her and Grandma Cindy a few smiles, stuck his tongue out at them, and the funniest part of all was letting them know he was a typical boy by playing with things he had no business playing with! That same day Grandma Cindy gave his Mommy the gift of a stuffed animal with his heartbeat inside. Now she has that forever. Jr.’s mom will miss their 4:00 AM time together. While everyone else slept he was up with Mommy being the most active. Jr. really enjoyed hearing his Grandma Marlene’s voice. He got excited and would move and kick like crazy.

His sweet memory will live on in his Mommy and Daddy, Shabrail and Cristian; siblings, Isaiah Sanchez, Alina Cantu, Athena Rodriguez, and Koby Rodirguez; maternal grandparents, Marlene Rodriguez and husband, Emmanuel Mercardo and Jesus Sanchez; paternal grandparents, Joyce Alcorta and Jesus Martinez; many aunts, uncles, and many cousins.

Jr. was so loved and wanted by many family members and his siblings. He will be missed. Until we meet again, watch over Daddy and Mommy, son. We love you sweet boy.
