Marty Eugene Edmonds
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Marty Eugene Edmonds, of Grand Rivers, KY on Friday, July 26, 2024.
In the 68 years that Marty lived, he was so many things to so many people. He was a son, a brother, a husband, an uncle, a friend, and a hero. Marty truly had a heart of gold, always looking out for others, always lending a helping hand, and always ready for a hug. Marty did not live for his own happiness, but for the happiness of others. Marty’s unbounded love transformed the lives of everyone he encountered with his remarkable ability to connect with people, share himself, and make a friend wherever he went.
