Jaime Gonzales Martinez

Jaime Gonzales Martinez

Jaime Gonzales Martinez, 55, of Cuero passed away Saturday, April 4, 2026. He was born August 16, 1970 in Cuero to Jesus S. and Margaret Gonzales Martinez. He was a hard worker and was last employed at Amherst studio built here in Cuero as a forklift operator. (He claimed to be the best – that was his opinion of course) He was a Houston Texan fan and Houston Rockets sports fan, but most of all, he was a proud Cuero Gobbler fan: as the saying goes – once a gobbler, always a gobbler! He was a very humble person who was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. He enjoyed golf, fishing and a competitive game of pool.

He is survived by his mother, Margaret Gonzales Glass; Step-father, Roger Glass; wife, Ashley Zapata Martinez; daughter, Jamie Heaven Martinez; son, Joseph Martinez; sister, Miranda Garcia; brothers, Jesse G. Martinez (Martha), Frank G. Garibay (Shilo), Michael Martinez (Yvonne) and Danny Martinez (Jewel); step-sisters, Tommie Tabares (Alex, Leona Whitman, Erin Glass and Taryn Lezynski (Blake); step-brother, Ashley Glass (Laine) as well as numerous Nephews and Nieces.

He was preceded in death by his father, Jesse Martinez Sr.; brother, Joseph Martinez; sister, Vanessa Ann Martinez and grandparents, Prospero and Juanna Martinez and Claudio and Maria Gonzales.
