Johnny better known as JD was brought into this world on Oct. 28, 1994, in Alamosa, Colo. He left this world on Sept. 1, 2024, with his loving family by his side.
While JD was more of a jack of all trades, his main and favorite careers were being a painter, cook, music producer, and rap artist. JD enjoyed cooking and trying out new recipes, which were always “Fire!” as he would say.
He had a huge, beautiful heart and always protected and was there for his family and friends. JD’s sense of humor was known by all. He loved sports, his favorite sports being Denver Broncos, Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche, The Rockies, New York Yankees, boxing and UFC.
One of his favorite things to do was spend time with his family and friends making memories, most of the time tacos would be involved. Johnny will be loved and missed by many. He was a fighter and he fought to the end.
Johnny is survived by his parents Johnny B. and Darlene Martinez, older sister and best friend Anastasia Lucero, nephew Tobias Lujan, Goddaughter Serenity Lujan, niece Evianna Lujan, little brother Jordan Martinez all of Alamosa, Colo.; paternal grandmother Wilma Martinez, maternal grandparents Ray and Juanita Lucero of Ignacio, Colo.; his Nino and Nina Mathew and Crystal Martinez of Alamosa, Colo.; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, and his brother from another mother Tyler Young of Ignacio, Colo.
A Celebration of Life and dinner will be held Sunday, Sept. 15, at the Elks Lodge in Alamosa, Colo., at 11 a.m. One of Johnny’s last requests was for everyone to wear his favorite color Blue, let's honor him.
