Guadalupe "Boog"

Martinez Ii

Guadalupe "Boog" Martinez II, age 28, passed away unexpectedly on Friday July 31, 2026, with his father, Guadalupe "Lupe" Martinez Jr. by his side.

Born on June 16, 1998 in Paulding, OH, Boog grew up with a deep appreciation of family, friendship, and community. He married the love of his life, Victoria "Tori" Martinez, and together they built a home filled with laughter, warmth, and unconditional support. As a father to Guadalupe III "G3", he was a constant source of guidance, encouragement, and joy.

Boog had a remarkable gift for making everyone feel like family. Whether he was at work, on the ball field, or out in the community, he brought people together with his welcoming spirit and genuine heart. His impact will be remembered through the countless lives he touched, and many memories shared by family and friends.

He is survived by his wife, Tori and his son, G3, Napoleon, OH; mother, Dawn Martinez, Paulding, OH; siblings, Breanne (Eric) Goodrich, Defiance, OH; Dayne (Tarra) Widenhamer, Columbus, OH; Georgina (Michael) Martinez, Paulding, OH; Chloe Boyd, Paulding, OH; and Kaydin Boyd, Paulding, OH; grandparents Guadalupe (Donna) Martinez, Defiance, OH; Kenny (Stacey) Boyd, Paulding, OH; LeaAnn Boyd, Van Wert, OH; and great-grandmother, Olga Rocha, Paulding, OH.

Boog was preceded in death by his grandmother, Juanita Martinez.

Funeral service will be held at 7:00 P.M. on Monday, August 10, 2026 at Den Herder Funeral Home.

Visitation will be from 4:00 P.M. until time of services on Monday at the funeral home.

The family requests no flowers or funeral memorabilia. Please direct any contributions to G3, in care of his mother, Tori.

In honor of Boog's love for softball and the community he helped build, a Celebration of Life will be held at the ball fields in Napoleon, Ohio, on a date yet to be announced. This gathering will reflect the way Boog would want to be remembered: surrounded by family, friends, laughter, and the game he loved.

Though his time here was far too short, Boog's legacy of love, friendship, and community will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
