Nakiel Michael Martinez of San Tan Valley, AZ passed away unexpectedly in his sleep on 12/11/23 in Chandler, AZ at 21 years of age. He is survived by his mother, Lisa Martinez, father, Randolph “Robert” Martinez, two brothers, Anthonee and Devon Martinez, sister in law, Emma “CeCe” Martinez, nephew, Anthonee Martinez, grandparents, Anita Mangrum, Mike Bradburn and Lucille Martinez, as well as aunts, uncles, cousins and many beloved friends. He is preceded in death by his grandfather, Ernesto Martinez. Nakiel was full of life. He loved fiercely, laughed contagiously and had the most generous heart. He was a lover of music, working out and basketball. He enjoyed playing jokes, doing impersonations and was no stranger to a good time. Despite the hardships Nakiel faced, he always sought out the best in people. In weakness, his hardships overcame his best intentions. He is in God’s loving embrace now. Rest now sweet boy, your fears are quiet, your tears are dry and your heart is whole once again. Your family loves you more than you ever knew and will keep your memory alive always.

There won’t be a moment that your memory won’t be kept alive, buddy. Auntie will miss and love you until the day we meet again. I’ll be looking forward to a huge smile and a big bear hug. Please look over me, my angel nephew, guide me and my family through life and show us how to heal from the pain of losing you so suddenly. You’ve brought us all together and we worked together every way in your memory to honor you. I love you always. Rest in peace now, sweet boy.

Nakiel was vibrant and head strong as long as I’ve known him, I had respect knowing that he knew who he was and what he wanted and was always determined to get whatever he wanted, He had a smile that would change an environment in a moment and he had a heart for people is what I know. May the Lord bless him and keep him. I believe we will see each other again. Rest in peace Nakiel and know that you are loved by many.
