Obituary
In 2012, Martin married the love of his life, Andrea Roberson of Tifton, Georgia. They have two daughters, Taelor E. Dennard and Bailey K. Dennard.
From the very beginning of his story, Martin was taught to serve. He was Co-Owner of Carter's Grill and Restaurant for twenty plus years. Living in Albany, he was a member of Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church. He continued his service to the community through the brotherhood of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., Kappa Kappa Psi, Henry Link Johnson Elk Lodge #633 and Sons of the American Legion #512. Martin also served on several boards in his community; such as ADDICA, downtown development. He was interested in the welfare and future of Albany.
An outgoing, gentle giant is how most would describe Martin. He loved his family, traveling, cooking, and sports. He would be found watching the Maury Povich Show.
Martin was preceded in death by his mother, Sylvia Brown Carter and his brother, Vincent Carter, as well as his paternal and maternal grandparents. Martin was ushered into the next life---for the perfect and eternal stay on Wednesday, October 18, 2017.

Carter; his second set of parents, Larry Mims and Joyce Mims of Tifton, Georgia; a sister, Janice Carter Collier (Troy); a brother, Robert Robinson; his mother and father-in-law, Jack and Annie McCaffery; four sisters-in-law, Deanna Roberson-Faircloth of Greenville, South Carolina, Kristal Roberson of Valdosta, Georgia, Angela Roberson of Atlanta, Georgia, Sandranetta Womack of Tifton, Georgia; three brothers-in-law, M.
