Joshua Martinez Obituary

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Joshua Martinez, age 15, who departed this life on Friday, January 16, 2026 in Ridgeland, SC.
Joshua was a beloved child whose life, though brief, left a lasting imprint on the hearts of all who knew him. His radiant smile, gentle spirit, and kind heart will forever be remembered by his family, friends, classmates, and loved ones. Joshua's presence brought light, joy, and warmth, and his memory will continue to live on through those who cherished him.
Arrangements are incomplete at this time and will be announced by Allen Funeral Home.
The family asks for continued prayers, love, and support during this most difficult time.

Joshua was a really kind hearted kid who always wanted to do his best and even though we knew each other for a short while we got really close super fast, he was someone who i could come talk to when i was having a hard time with something and he would never complain, he would always listen and give advice and vice versa im proud to have known Joshua he will forever be missed
