Born August 13, 1951 in Gainesville, he was the son of the late N.C. Martin and the late Etta Mae Hyde Martin. He was retired from Jack of All Trades and Master of None and a member of Christ Place Church.
Ronny also known as “wombat” by his favorite son in law loved people. He loved sharing life experiences and could spin you a story like a wagon wheel. He never once met a stranger. Hunting, fishing, and fellowship is where he loved to spend his free time. Cutting up and telling jokes were always expected. Never a dull moment when Ronny was around. Everyone loved his cooking but his famous meatballs will be missed the most. Dropping everything to help family or to be there for a friend you could always count on him. He’s walking the streets of gold with Jesus and no longer in pain or suffering.
