Patrick J. Martin, born July 31, 1965, of Fenelton, PA, went to be with the Lord on April 15, 2026.
He passed away in his home, surrounded by his wife, Chrissy Martin, his children, Kaeti, Rhea, and Alex Martin, as well as Angie and husband Donnie Clemens. Also present were his grandchildren, Jayden, Emma, and Derrick Clemens. Patrick’s brother and sister-in-law, Josh and Courtnay Martin, niece Samantha Harris, great nephew Conrad Miller, and first wife, Leonida Shope, were also present in his final days.
Patrick was born and raised in Lebanon County, PA, before moving to Fenelton in 2019. He was the son of Kathleen and James Martin, who preceded him in death. He is survived by two other siblings, grandchildren Grey Fournier and Xander Wolfe, both of Columbia, PA, three nephews, Evan, Eric, and Seamus Martin, as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins who loved him dearly.
Patrick spent many years of his life working as a skilled and meticulous carpenter, contributing to many different facilities such as York Hospital, Park City Mall in Lancaster, several buildings for Hershey Medical Center, and communication centers for Comcast. In his spare time, he enjoyed creating things with his grandchildren, such as meat smokers, outdoor fire pits, and birdhouses. He also spent a great deal of time at Butler Dek Hockey volunteering on renovation projects and cheering on his grandkids. He loved going out for ice cream and Sunday drives with his wife, Chrissy, and their German Shepherd, Belle, who both miss him dearly.
Patrick fought a hard battle with glioblastoma cancer for seventeen months before being called home to the Lord. His loved ones are sure they’ve gained a new guardian angel, as his faith ran very deep within his heart.
