LACONIA ---- Ulyssys Luis Martinez, 32, of Van Dyke Drive, passed away on Monday, September 9, 2024, at Concord Hospital in Concord.
Ulyssys was born on August 19, 1992, in Boston, MA, the son of the late Jose and Colleen (McNeil) Martinez.
Ulyssys earned his Bachelor’s degree in Film Studies from Keene State College in 2015. Needless to say, movies were one of his great loves. You could name any movie or TV show you’ve ever watched and he would be happy to tell you all about how they filmed it, where, and fun facts about the actors/actresses, etc.
His personal hobbies included learning everything he could about science (quantum physics, specifically) and space, and he had a special love for history. His sister describes him as being a true intellectual. He was always willing to learn something new.
He was also well known for his wild sense of humor. His friends and family will remember him for his infectious laughter and incredible ability to get a room full of people laughing until their sides hurt. He was never a shy person and usually had no trouble making a new friend everywhere he went.
Ulyssys is survived by his sister Audriana Martinez, his half-brother James McNeil, uncle James ‘Jimbo’ O’Neil and Ulyssys’ loving girlfriend, Cristin ‘Fox’ Vandal.
There will be no calling hours.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, October 19, 2024, at 2:00pm, at the VFW Laconia Post 1670, 143 Court Street, Laconia, NH 03246.
