“In loving memory of John M. Martinez. I worked with John @ CAT. John was everybody's friend. He always had a smile, I can't think of him without picturing that smile. If you worked with John for 5 mins you knew how much his family meant to him, family was everything to him, he carried you guys with him everywhere he went. Still does. With deepest sympathies.”
