Martin was born in Frankfort, Kentucky. He graduated from Franklin County High School and attended Eastern Kentucky University before working as an investigator for the Ky Crime Victims Compensation Board. After a full career, he retired from state government.
Martin was a devoted son, father, and brother. He was a loving and kind person who always led with his heart and was helpful to anyone who asked. He loved traveling with Seth and spending time with family and friends. He enjoyed John Grisham novels, fishing, boating, and spreading joy with his signature beer cheese. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus and a lifelong UK sports fan. He could be found tailgating with family, friends, and his Knights of Columbus brothers during UK football season. Martin enjoyed much, but his greatest joy was being a father to Seth. Martin will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him.
