PATRICK'S OBITUARY
U.S. Veteran
Patrick M. Martin, 86, of Sunman passed away at home on Thursday, January 7, 2021 fortified by the sacraments. Patrick was born February 1, 1934 to John and Catherine (Cotton) Martin. Patrick volunteered to serve his country during the Korean War and was a welder for the United States Navy. He married Janice (Hoffman) Martin on January 14, 1961. They labored together on the farm milking cows and growing crops and a large garden for nearly 60 years. They were blessed with 9 children. Visitors were always welcome in their home and at their table. Patrick didn’t know a stranger and he made friends wherever he went.
Patrick loved GOD, his family and his country and he worked hard to be a good steward of all that God had entrusted to his care. He made attending Sunday mass and praying together at the table before meals a lifelong priority. In later years, when the weather permitted you would find him outside in front of his grotto multiple times each day praying the rosary. When he was unable to go outside, he prayed the rosary looking out the living room window over the fields he loved.
Patrick is survived by his loving wife, Janice; daughters Patsy (late Arthur) Little of Bright and Pauline Martin of Sunman and son Chris (Kember) Martin of Indianapolis; sister Catherine (Leonard) Eckstein of Batesville; grandchildren Michael (Anna) Little of Sunman, Daniel and Anna Little of Bright and Kaelin and Garrett Martin of Indianapolis; and great grand-children Ivy and Zoe Little.
Patrick was preceded in death by his parents; siblings John Jr., Charles and Betty (Deyhle) Martin, Tom and Anne (Urk) Martin, and Charlotte and Otto Moorman; and children Michael, Charlie, Daniel, Colleen and Rose Martin.
Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Tuesday, January 12 at 11AM at St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Morris, IN. Burial will follow in St. Anthony Cemetery.
