Martin Gerena
1979 – 2013
New Britain, CT

Martin was an extraordinary son, father, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend — someone who showed up fully in every role and wore every hat with love, dedication, and heart. He loved deeply and without hesitation, giving of himself so freely to everyone around him. A true ray of sunshine, he had a way of filling every room with laughter, smiles, and warmth, always making sure others were happy — even during times when he quietly carried his own struggles and sadness.

Though he is deeply missed, he is never forgotten. Our family honors him by keeping his memory alive each and every day. He remains an inseparable part of our lives — spoken of, remembered, and lovingly woven into everything we do. His spirit lives on most beautifully through his daughter, in whom his love, light, and legacy continue to shine.
