Martin (Tino) Dean, life-long resident of Santa Fe, made his journey on February 26th, 2024. Martin was born July 27, 1967. He was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Luis and Grace Dean and brother Amos Dean.

Oscar (Chukie), Alonzo (Boogie) and Eddy. He also shared a very special bond with Anna (Gords), Bella, Leticia, Crystal. And his goddaughter Gracie. Martin also had a very special bond with his sister Ruth. They were inseparable since childhood. Their bond continued up until his last day with us here on earth. They enjoyed going out to eat, cruising, playing the slot machines at the casinos, and so much more. They had a vault full of secrets. They were fiercely protective of each other. Martin is also survived by his girlfriend Jessica and her grandson Izayah. Izayah always referred to him as his pampo. Martin love them both dearly. With Martin's passing, many have lost the cherished spark the laughter he brought to each of our lives. Martin had a very big heart. He could make you laugh one minute and pull your hair out the next. He will be deeply missed.
