Obituary
It's with the greatest sadness that I announce the passing of Ralph Martinez, we love you and will always miss your presence. You taught us to never give up, and live life to the fullest. And for that we thank you.
You were a source of strength, the rock and foundation in life and love, and your native ancestry you bestowed upon your family. And your beloved car club Watsonville Raiders, your brother, and friends.
Ralph was born on October 19, 1965, to James and Florence Martinez in Watsonville, California. Sadly, he passed away on his birthday, he was 58 years old.
Ralph leaves behind his brothers David and Santos Martinez, and his sisters Delia and Alice Castillo. He also leaves behind his children Ralph Jr. and Regina Martinez, his stepchildren Anthony, Noah, Rachael, and Julian Campos. He had five grandchildren Makayla, Gregory, Alizae, Joseph, and Richard. He also leaves behind several cousins.
Viewing will be on Tuesday, November 14, 2023 from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at Mehl's Colonial Chapel, with a graveside service to follow at Valley Public Cemetery at 12 noon.
