Celestino "Tino" Isreal Martinez

Celestino Israel "Tino" Martinez 26, a resident of El Rito, New Mexico passed away on October 4, 2025.

He enjoyed the gym, grilling (charcoal) food, and anything outdoors. He loved the military, his friends, and his family. An avid outdoorsman, he killed his first bear at 13 years old.

He loved calling friends and family just to talk and check-in on everyone. Tino usually lit up a room with his humor or demeanor.

His passing leaves an unviable void, but his memory and love will continue to live in the hearts of all who know him.

Tino is survived by two beautiful children, Bonnie and Roman; their mother Natasha Garcia; his grandmother (adoptive mother) Melva Jaramillo Trujillo; great grandmother Mary M. Jaramillo; brother Enrique C. Martinez (Sophia, Nadia, Esperanza, Enrique, Cillian, Daniel) uncles Kenny Jaramillo; and Greg Jaramillo; as well as many more nephews, nieces, cousins, and friends.

Preceded in death by his mother Bonnie Trujillo, great-grandfather Celestino Jaramillo, grandfather Danny Trujillo, and cousin Jeremy Jaramillo.

Rest in peace Tino, your beautiful spirit will always be with your family and friends and though you are gone you will never be forgotten.
