Welcome: Hello everyone we Thank You for coming to celebrate, honor, remember, and bare witness of the BLESSED Life of a Phenomenal Strong Survivor of This Life!

Opening Prayer: Holy Father You’re Holy word say’s in James 4:13 - Some of you say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go to a certain city. We will stay there for a year. We will buy and sell things, and we will become rich.’ If you say things like that, listen to me. You do not really know what will happen tomorrow. Your life is like a cloud which appears for a short time and then it quickly goes away. So, what you ought to say is, ‘If the Lord agrees and we are still alive, then we will do this or that.’ But instead, you talk about what you have decided to do. You speak as if you have the power to make it happen. It is wrong to speak like that. So, you know the right thing that you ought to do. But if you know that and you do not do the right thing, then you have done a wrong thing. James 4:13-17 EASY

Obituary reading: Kevin James Martin, , departed this life August 22nd 2021, after 63 years living here with us. Kevin born November 2oth 1958, in Detroit Mi, to his late parents James Richard Martin and Gloria Marie Shallow, yet he is survived by his wife Kelly Boulas, and leaving also 6 Precious Phenomenal adult children Mike, Michelle, Crystal, Kevin, Steven, Mark, and 8 Lovely Grandchildren Glenn, James, Drayden, Kameron, Ava, Audrina, Preston, Hope, plus 5 Siblings 1 brother Mike Martin, and 4 sisters Sue, Bev, Lori and Julie and host of other relatives.

Continue on the path with me, enjoying my presence even in adversity. I am always before you, as well as alongside you. See me beckoning to you: "Come Follow me." The One who goes ahead of you, opening up the way, is the same One who stays close and never let’s go of your hand. I am not subject to limitations of time or space. I am everywhere at every time, ceaselessly working on your behalf. That is why you’re best efforts are trusting Me and living close to Me.

Closing remarks: I met Big Kevin and Kelly in August of 2015, and over time the entire Martin family. We live on a very unique block that I wouldn’t want to live nowhere else because I know GOD put me there and the Martins were there first. Nobody knows but Big Kevin, Mike Ashby Sr. and Dave Tackett I prayed for the house next to them and they became my Family when no one else knows but them and my family. Kevin was a neighbors, neighbor and brother behind the scene you wanted to go through the go through with you, because he didn’t fear. He had pain, suffer, let you know he hurt just like you yeah, but quitting wasn’t an option. When something was done it became scrap to us that’s how we were cut, and wise of enough to know we couldn’t make a rain drop. But if we could make life better for the next human we’d try. ______LUKE 1:37____________We’re gonna be alright!____

REMEMBER this Y'ALL Big Kevin Loved HIS Family to the End He didn't Plan ttat Last Day But GOD Did!

Rev. Comment & Special scripture James 4:14-17 & Family comment: We all gotta go, How are you going, If it’s your turn to go, do You know where you’re going? Life is short no matter how long we live, and no one knows the length of his or her life. So don’t be deceived into thinking that you have lots of remaining time to live for Christ, to enjoy your loved ones, or to do what you know you should. Live for God today! Then, no matter when your life ends, you will have fulfilled God’s plan for you. Amen!

Director Remarks

If I Could by G W (Bill) Marshall / Dec 08, 2012

If I could but see, again your face, Oh how much my heart would race, And nothing could ever efface, The mem’ry of our last embrace.

If I could climb to Heaven’s gate And just look in to watch awhile, Then I know I could joyfully wait, If I could see your happy smile.

If I could hear the song you sing And your laughter bless my ears, Then grief would lose its sting And a smile would dry my tears.

But faith would lose its esteem, And Heaven’d lose its stealth, So we must be denied this dream, If Heaven is to keep its wealth.
