Our Amos left his home peacefully on Aug. 28, 2015, and went to heaven to be with his brother Michael and loved ones. He was born on Aug. 23, 1963, in Tooele, Utah. He graduated in 1981 and moved to California for a short period of time. His heart was made of gold and fire — his compassion for people in need was given freely with love. He would give you his last dollar or his shirt off his back. He went as far as having a burial done for a friend who lived here in Tooele alone with no family, saying it wasn’t right to leave this world without a proper blessing and burial. Amos loved to go fishing, camping, and loved trips to Wendover. He loved to watch the Denver Broncos with his family. He cared for many and his love and compassion will be deeply missed, but his love for a child was the greatest when he brought home a beautiful boy, his son Luciano, his greatest gift of life. Preceded in death by his brother, Michael, his grandparents, Phillip and Eloisa Martinez, Modesto and Delmeria Garcia and numerous uncles and cousins. He is survived by his parents, Vincent and Erma Martinez, brother, Arthur (Pam) Martinez, sister, Rose (Richard) Perales, and Luciano, his son. Nieces and nephews, Valerie, JoAnn, Sydney, Marcus, Teresa, Marissa, Veronica, Armando, Icysis and Michael, and many great-nieces and nephews whom he loved greatly, they will now have an angel watching over them from heaven with peace. Visitation will be at St. Marguerite Catholic Church in Tooele on Thursday, Sept. 3 from 6-7 p.m. followed by the rosary from 7-8 p.m. Funeral Mass will be held on Friday, Sept. 4 at 11 a.m. Burial will be at Tooele City Cemetery following mass services.
