Karen Renee Lyles wrote a sympathy message

“Martin (or as our family always called him “Jr”) was an absolute favorite relative of mine. He was always caring, offered good advice, and whenever we talked, he genuinely seemed to care about me. I loved him dearly! He was a good brother, father, husband, and uncle. His kids were blessed to have him as a father. And his kids were good to him. I am going to miss him until we meet in Heaven one day. He will be missed.”
