Our sincere sympathy and condolences to the family and friends of Mr. Robert Martinez.

I am deeply saddened, last time I saw Mr. Martinez a few weeks ago he was not well. We had a long conversation I walked him to his car and we talked about his health. He would share candy and snacks with me.

Our thoughts remain with you and your family at this time. We are honored by the trust and confidence you have placed in us during this difficult time. – The Staff of Malloy Funerals & Cremations
