Patricia Marie Martinez

Patricia “Patty” Martinez peacefully entered heaven on October 21, 2026. Born Patricia Marie Dagdagan to Victorino and Dolores “Lolita” Dagdagan on March 11, 1960, she was the youngest of 3. Patty immediately brought light into the family as the baby sister to her siblings Bobby and Susanna Dagdagan. Quickly she wrapped her father around her finger and grew to become her mother’s greatest confidante. Patty would remain the center of the Dagdagan Family’s world for years to come.

As she grew Patty went on to develop many meaningful life long friendships that would help carry her through many milestones in her life. At just 13 years old, Patty met the love of her life, Marcos Martinez. In 1977, she married her high school sweetheart and soon after they welcomed their first child.

Together, Patty and Marcos raised 3 children, Marcos Martinez Jr., Robert Martinez, and Vanessa Ramirez. Through her children she happily welcomed her daughter-in-laws, Maribel Martinez, Esther Martinez, and her son-in-law David Ramirez. Patty was a doting grandmother, her greatest joys were her grandchildren; Izabella & Maleah Martinez, Nico, Mila, & Devon Ramirez. She took great pride in her children and grandchildren’s milestones both big and small. She was their biggest cheerleader.

Known for her bright smile and encouraging nature, Patty loved being tia or auntie to her many nieces and nephews.

Patty was preceded in death by her parents, Victorino and Lolita Dagdagan. She is survived by her loving husband, children, grandchildren, siblings, nieces, nephews, in laws, and many great friends.
