Kevin T. Martin passed from this life December 22, 2017, leaving heartbroken his
family and friends. He was born April 19, 1961 to James E. Martin and Lois Bowlin Martin in New Orleans. Kevin proudly followed his father and uncles to Holy Cross High School, where he was on the wrestling team, enjoyed every minute and graduated in 1979. He attended Nicholls State University. Kevin’s loves were his wife, children, parents, family, friends, all things Irish, baseball (especially any game his son Ryan played in and the Red Sox) and Notre Dame football. He marched with the Irish Channel Marching Club since his teens, but only took up the kilt in later life. He made his living selling beer, any Irishman’s dream. Kevin was preceded in death by his father, James E. Martin. He is survived by his mother Lois B. Martin, wife Gina Bianchini Martin, his children Clare Margaret and Ryan Seamus and sisters, Erin Martin Stark and Tara Martin. He leaves behind a host of beloved nephews, nieces, aunts, cousins and dear friends. We will miss his mischievous grin, goofy wit and inspired, if off key, rendering of The Wild Colonial Boy. He was one of a kind. God speed, Kev. Family and friends are invited to attend the Memorial Mass on Friday, December 29, 2017 at 12:15 pm in the J. Garic Schoen Chapel of JACOB SCHOEN & SON. Visitation will begin at 9:30 AM and continue until Mass time. Interment will be private. Condolences may be expressed at www.schoenfh.com
