Elena you were always his little girl and you will forever be his princess. My dad passed away when I was young (ironically under almost exactly the same circumstances), the empty place in my life will never be filled by another. Your dad was so important to so many people, and he impacted so many lives take comfort in knowing you and your brother were the most important to him.

Merry Christmas my love! :* SONYA GARCIA, DECEMBER 12, 2010 the thing that i regret the most is that i never got to know you as well as my dad. from what he's told me you were a wonderful father and the best cousin. i will always remember Monica's wedding where you taught me how to dance. i wont forget you doing the electric slide (by yourself) and having a huge smile on your face. you will never be forgotten. And will always be missed. your son is the splitting image of you. and your daughter is simply beautiful. i love you Lil Pete RIP MIRANDA ROSE GONZALES, AUGUST 7, 2010 i loved my dad! he blessed anyone he meant! he was dearly loved ELENA MARTINEZ, APRIL 28, 2010 So, what do I say to the love of my life... Twelve years..the last words you heard from my lips here on earth were, "I love you." We had our ups or downs but at the end of the day we had our love. You taught me what it is to truly love an individual inside and out through thick and thin through the awesome and the not so awesome. You have left me with two of the most beautiful pieces of you. They are a daily reminder of your wonderful qualities and all the things that I hold dear to my heart. And for that you will forever live within my heart. You are embedded deep within my soul and we will reunite in heaven. The day you left this earth you said to me that you have seen me climb mountains in your life, my life, and the kids life and that I can do anything. Thank you baby for believing in me and know that I'm working hard to climb this mountain for our babies. Till we meet again I Love you... SONYA GARCIA, APRIL 1, 2010 I was saddened to hear the loss of you My heart and sole broke into a million pieces and to watch them lay you to rest a man I was once with and loved, who became a close good friend of mine. A family who is loving and awesome in so many ways and his Kids that made me laugh and smile, when you meet them you realize why Pete was such a great man. A family I hold so close to my

4 heart. I am at peace and know that he is in a better place. I was with him the first time he went back to church in Irving but to hear the paster confirm that he knew his savior Jesus christ melted my heart. I was told by a family member to talk to him because he can hear us and will listen to you and after the funeral that night I told him I will see him that I send him my love hugs and I said a prayer as I opened up my eyes and looked up at the sky a shooting star shot so birght and clear across the sky that I knew that it was him letting me know that he was fine. I will see his big smile again soon. I am proud of him and all he achieved and I am glad to have had him in my life for the years that I did. One thing that I will never forget is that a few months ago he called to tell me how much he cared and how proud of me that he was for all that I have achieved in my life along with other things, that I never gave up I kept fighten for what I wanted. He Thanked me for the encouragement that I gave him and for believing in him. Pete I will miss you and see you one day soon. I love you and there will always be a place in my heart for you. BREEZY G., AUGUST 21, 2009 I'm so sorry I couldn't be there to give you all my condolences. My thoughts and prayers are with you all Tia Leecha and Anna and Pete. I pray that God give you the strength to get through this difficult time.

I will never forget the last time we hung out and i will remember you just like that (LOUD AND FUNNY). Lord willing i will one day keep my promise to you and we will hang out and paint heaven red just like we would of done in Dallas, except heaven is somewhere we do not want to get kicked out of so we will tread lightly my friend.

Peace be with you always brother Pete. JOHN GONZALES ALONZO, JR., AUGUST 18, 2009 I have 12 years of unforgettable memories of Andro Pete Martinez so it is hard to put them all in this limited space. It seemed liked no matter how far apart we lived or what was going on in our lives we always managed to keep contact. He would call periodically just to check on me and make sure I was doing ok. Pete was extremely respectfully and caring, he was a great friend. Always the life of the party, if he wasn't making you laugh he felt like he wasn't doing his job. Pete had wisdom beyond his years and I will always carry his great advice with me. He loved his kids more then anything. I have never heard any father speak so lovingly of his children, they were his heart and soul. Pete always lived life to the fullest. There is no one like Pete, he was definitely one of a kind! I will forever miss him! CRYSTAL DAWN STORIE, AUGUST 17, 2009 My prayers are with you and your family my deepest sympathy. VANESSA JONES, AUGUST 17, 2009 Man Bro I wish I could have seen you again.
