Emily Barton, the cousin of Martin, reacts to the loss and recalls the forever living memories.
“My cousin, Brad Martin, went to be with Jesus yesterday. It just doesn’t seem real.”
“There are so many memories with him growing up. Brad loved to tease and pick on us, and he always had that grin on his face. He was a handsome man with a beautiful voice.”
He adds, “Brad is in heaven with his dad and all our family that had gone before him who knew and loved Jesus. I know he had an amazing homecoming surrounded by them all.”
A campaign, GiveSendGo, was created by Melissa Lea Hobbs & Shane Markus to raise funds to meet Martin’s medical debts due to a work-related injury in January.
The description clears all the ongoing rumors about his cause of death. “He has suffered severe internal damage causing hemorrhaging, along with a multitude of other life-threatening issues with his liver.”
