Martin, John D. - obituary, Minutes of the One Hundred and Eighteenth Annual Session of Old Regular Baptist of Jesus Christ, September 24, 25 and 26 1943, held with Philadelphia Church, Hippo, Floyd County, Kentucky.  Most genealogical libraries in eastern Kentucky will have a copy of these minutes. It becomes my very sad duty as a son to write an obituary of my own very dear father, John D. Martin, whose death has greatly grieved my heart.  Yet at the same time when I think of the life that he lived and the great faith and hope he expressed in God and His Son Jesus Christ it rejoices my very heart and soul that I who cherish a like faith and hope in the same God and the same Christ, to be able to write these words.  It is an added joy because I feel that I was in some measure instrumental in leading my father to make a complete surrender of his heart and life to the Lord Jesus Christ.  My saddest thoughts are that I was not present when he was buried with Christ in baptism was at his bedside when his dear precious soul took its flight to be with that Christ forever more.  But I have the assurance that I shall join them as well as sister who awaits me.  Father was born September 26, 1859.  He died March 4, 1943.  He was married to Anna Turner.  They were blessed with four children.  One daughter, Mrs. Douglas Hays, died November 30, 1928.  Three sons, all of whom are still living and also eleven precious grandchildren.  He joined the Old Regular Baptist Church about four years ago.  He was baptized by Reverend Alex Allen and Malcolm Wright assisting.  The last ten years of his life were spent almost in continued illness which prevented him attending church as he would liked to have.  My father was noted throughout Eastern Kentucky for his genial disposition, sincere loyalty to his host of friends, kind hospitality and his supreme love and devotion to his family and to his people.  No person was ever turned away from his home hungry or denied a helping hand.  He practiced that great Christian truth, "Whatsoever ye would that men do to you, do ye also likewise unto them."  He was a great believer in that precious truth,  "Ye must be born again," which has assured him the glorious victory of eternal life with God and with Christ who suffered and died upon the cross for his sins and was raised again for his justification.   In conclusion I want to pay tribute to my dear precious mother, also my brother for their continued unswerving love and devotion to him during his long period of sickness until the very last moment of his life.  Mother was ever at his bedside ministering to his every want and need.  He was constantly showing his love and appreciation and assuring her that he was going to a better home and when the time came he passed into eternity with clapping hands and a smile on his dear face.

Leroy's passion for animals stayed with him throughout his life.  Even after he became ill, he still loved to dabble in the cattle, goats, pigs and chickens that he loved.  Leroy was a husband, a father a brother, an uncle and a friend, but more important than that he was a compassionate man.  His love and generosity was spread throughout his community.  With his hard work, vision, and dedication, he developed one of the state's premier ambulance services--virtually from scratch--for people of Perry County.  His knowledge and experience was also instrumental in the formation and developing of other emergency medical services for other communities.  Leroy was a farmer, a rancher, a former ARH employee, a former Knott County magistrate, and former director of the Perry County Ambulance Service.  Leroy was always fair and open-minded.  He was always on the side of anyone who was willing to give an effort.  Leroy, we will miss you, but we will never forget you. You have left this world of pain to enter a place of no pain or sickness.  Our loss is heaven's gain.
