Anna Patricia Martinez was born in Alpine, Texas to Gil and Rosie Martinez on January 4, 1971. She went to school in Sanderson, Texas, and she graduated from Colorado Springs, Colorado. She was employed as a Deputy Treasure for Terrell County for 10 years. She was faithfully devoted to her women's bible study, she loved to travel and see the world, she was strongly committed to her UT Longhorns and her Dallas Cowboys. She looked forward to participating in every family function, she loved to listen to music, dance, and last, but certainly not least, her karaoke. Anna made sure she always carried her karaoke list close to her, because if there was an opportunity to sing, she was certainly not going to miss out on that opportunity! Anna was the life of any party. Her unique sense of humor, charisma, and self-confidence shined bright like a diamond. Anna never missed out on the opportunity for an adventure to see the world. Her motto in life was too live her life to the fullest and be kind to everyone. Anna was loved by many and will be deeply missed by all who loved her.

Anna is proceeded in death by her father Gil F. Martinez, paternal grandparents Julian Martinez Sr. and Juanita Flores, maternal grandparents Onesimo and Juanita Montello.
