Ryan's obituary

Ryan D. Martin, 43, of Plainville, MA passed away suddenly on March 30, 2024. He was the devoted husband of Sarah (Bowen) Martin. Born in Syracuse, NY, Ryan was the son of David and Maralee (Charon) Martin of Shallotte, NC. Ryan has resided in Plainville, MA with his family, for the past twelve years.

Ryan was the loving father of Gregory, William, and Abigail Martin. He was the brother of Dustin Martin and his wife Courtney, and Casey Martin and his wife Ashley. He was the beloved uncle of many nieces and nephews. Besides his loving family, Ryan will be missed by his adoring pup, Ollie.

Ryan was a 1999 graduate of Fayetteville-Manlius High School in New York. He completed his undergraduate degree at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute where he participated in Naval ROTC. Ryan was commissioned as an Ensign by his father, CAPT David Martin (ret) in 2003. He served over six years on active duty. He qualified as a Nuclear Submarine Officer and served as Operations Officer on the USS Jimmy Carter (SSN-23) on its first deployment in 2006 in the Western Pacific. LT Martin was an instructor at Naval Submarine School, Groton, CT for two years. LT Martin was selected as Junior Officer of the Year, Submarine Pacific Fleet, in 2006.

Following his honorable discharge from the Navy, Ryan completed his MBA at Boston University Questrom School of Business. He then transitioned to a successful career in IT consulting, serving as a Partner at multiple global firms.

Ryan's greatest joy was his family. Between coaching his boys' basketball teams and cheering Abigail at her dance competitions, you could always find him courtside or poolside with his family. His family and friends will always carry his memory in their hearts.

Relatives and friends are kindly invited to a Mass of Christian Burial on Saturday, April 6th at 10:00 AM in Saint Joan of Arc Church, 3357 Mendon Road, Cumberland. The burial will be private. Visiting hours are respectfully omitted.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that any charitable donations be made to support the children's education fund, which can be found at the following link: https://everloved.com/life-of…
