Kenneth Martin, 85

BOYNTON BEACH, FLA. – Kenneth “Kenny” Martin, of Boynton Beach, Florida, passed away peacefully on March 4, 2025, at home.

Kenny is survived by his devoted wife of 64 years, Judy Martin, and their cherished children: Ellen (Martin) and Philip Ades, Jeff and Karen Martin, and Ronni Martin and Marilyn Henkel. He was the beloved grandfather of Rachel (Ades) and Jeff Sarasohn, Janey (Ades) and Bram Levinson, Andy and Arielle Ades, Lindsey Ades and Mac Levin, Carly (Martin) and Zach Westner, Allie Martin, and Jason Martin. He was also a proud great-grandfather to Jake, Max and Robbie Sarasohn. Kenny is also survived by his brothers, Billy and Andy Martin, and Larry and Debbie Martin, along with many nieces and nephews.

Born and raised in New Bedford, Massachusetts, Kenny met the love of his life there. He attended the University of Massachusetts before joining his father at Cape News Company, where he eventually became president and owner.

Upon retirement, Kenny and Judy moved to Boynton Beach, where they became part of the close-knit Indian Springs community. Kenny’s passion was golf – whether zipping around in his golf cart, enjoying lunch at the clubhouse or playing cards with his friends. A ten-time club champion at Indian Springs Country Club, he took immense pride in the game. He was also an avid sports fan, especially of basketball, and closely followed the stock market.

Above all, Kenny’s greatest joy was his family. He never missed an opportunity to share how proud he was of his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren – whether you asked or not. He was a devoted brother and uncle, a caring friend and someone who always made time for others. His kindness extended to everyone, from lifelong friends to the waitstaff at his favorite restaurants.

Kenny lived life to the fullest, bringing warmth, laughter and generosity to all who knew him. He will be deeply missed.
