Tribute

Johnny Carl Martinez Sr., of Norman, Oklahoma, peacefully passed away on Tuesday, October 3, 2023, at the age of 76. He was born in Tamunig, Guam, to parents Carlos Kamminga Martinez and Josefina Leon Guerrero Martinez.

Johnny's life was marked by an unwavering commitment to service. He was proud to serve his country by enlisting in the United States Army, where he served in the Airborne unit.
