Martin Lawrence Little's Obituary
Martin Lawrence Little ( Marty ) of Salt Lake City, UT.Passed away May 20, 2023. Born February 21, 1968, in Salt Lake City, Ut. We are sad to announce the passing of Marty little. He was surrounded by his family at the end of his time. He loved being around family and friends and his dog Chipper. Most of all he loved an adored his boys Skylar and Aieddyn and the time they spent together.
For those of you who knew Marty knew he had the gift of gab, he could walk up to anyone and I mean anyone, start a conversation and go on for hours. Also known for lighting up a room with a bright smile.He loved kicking back and playing his guitar . He was very talented in many skills and hobbies including baseball, basketball, football, listening to music and being a professional painter and much more.
Around January 5th, 2016, Marty found out he had cancer and has been battling for seven years, he was a fighter and I would say cancer was just one of his many battles he took on in this lifetime. Sometimes we never really know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory so If we take anything from today please let it be that “ Life is too short, Live, Love, Laugh an give back as much as you can. Everyday we are reminded of how short life really is and how we all take advantage of those around us so express your love and gratitude today & everyday till you can’t.
Marty was loved by many and will be missed dearly.
