Brandon Martinez Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 28, 2017.

Brandon Keith Martinez, 34, of Austin, TX, passed away on Monday, September 25, 2017 as a result of injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident. He was born August 20, 1983 in San Marcos, TX to his loving parents, Armando and Celinda Martinez. He graduated from Pflugerville High School in 2001 and Texas State University in 2006 where he received his Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing. He was a member of the Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity.

Brandon is survived by his parents Armando and Celinda Martinez of Pflugerville; his brother Gabriel Martinez; his maternal grandmother Mary Elva Medina; and several aunts, uncles, and cousins. He was predeceased by his fraternal grandparents, Saragosa and Eulogia Martinez of Beeville, Texas.
Pallbearers will be Cory Johnson, Bret Beitler, Josh Strickland, Luis Guardia , Michael Beitler and Joe Meller. Honorary pallbearers are his cousins, Russell Martinez, Eric Gonzales, Carlos Martinez, Nathan Gonzales, Alix Martinez and Aaron Perez.

Brandon worked as a realtor in the Austin area for several years. Through his profession he had the privilege and honor of helping people find their dream home and throughout this process many lasting friendships were made. He experienced great joy in helping his clients achieve their goal of being a homeowner. Brandon was such a positive person who was so full of life. He was always smiling and his infectious laughter will be missed by all. He was truly an inspiration to those who were fortunate enough to know him. Brandon's philosophy of life was to "seize the moment and live every day like it was your last."

Visitation will be at Cook-Walden/Capital Parks Funeral Home in Pflugerville, Texas from 11:00 am-7:00 pm. A rosary will be recited at 7:00 pm.

There are some who bring a LIGHT so great to the world that even after they have gone their LIGHT remains. Brandon's LIGHT shone brightly and the impact of his life will remain in the hearts and minds of all who knew him for he touched many lives as he walked amongst us. One of his favorite quotes was: "What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." --- Ralph Waldo Emerson. My mother and I had the privilege of knowing this loving soul and he will indeed be dearly missed. Brandon left this earth knowing that he was loved and that is a testament to Celinda, Armando and Gabe. The love and compassion of the Martinez family has touched many lives and we pray God will surround them with the comfort and love only He can provide at this time. We will strive to be as good and kind a soul as our precious Brandon and we thank God for the gift of his life. Our love and deepest condolences to Celinda, Armando, Gabe, Mary Medina and their entire family for this tragic loss.
