Martin Aguado
His absence has left a deep void in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. Martin was a proud graduate of Jarrell High School, where he built lasting friendships and became known for his warm personality and uplifting spirit.
Whether in the classroom, at school events, or spending time with friends, Martin carried himself with a unique blend of kindness, humor, and authenticity. He had a natural ability to make others feel valued and appreciated, often offering a smile or a joke to brighten someone’s day.
To his family, Martin was much more than a brother—he was a protector, confidant, and constant source of strength. His sibling shared heartfelt words that reflect the depth of their bond:
“I don’t know where to begin or what to say other than I love you and I’m going to miss you, Martin Aguado. Life is so unfair to those who deserved the world. We were supposed to grow old together. You were my big brother, my rock. We looked out for each other since the day we were born. You had a laugh and a smile that were contagious. I feel so lost and broken, but I know you are up there looking after all of us, telling us it’ll all be okay. Te amo, mi hermano. You lived a short but beautiful life. Like you would always say, ‘Viviendo para que no me cuenten.’ Until we see each other again, my brother, I love you.”
These words capture not only the grief of a sibling’s loss but also the enduring love and admiration felt for Martin. He was someone who valued family above all else, always ready to stand by those he cared about. His presence in the lives of his loved ones was like an anchor—steady, dependable, and comforting.
Martin’s friends describe him as someone who radiated joy. His laugh was known to fill a room, his smile could lift spirits, and his willingness to listen made him a trusted friend. He approached life with energy and a readiness to embrace experiences.
The phrase he often repeated, “Viviendo para que no me cuenten”—loosely meaning “Living so they can’t just tell me about it”—was more than a saying; it was the way he lived. He embraced opportunities, sought adventure, and poured himself into moments that became cherished memories for those around him.
Though his life was cut short, Martin’s impact was profound. He leaves behind a legacy of love, loyalty, and genuine connection. His untimely passing is a reminder of the fragility of life and of the importance of cherishing time with the people we hold dear.
The Aguado family, along with Martin’s friends and the greater Jarrell community, are united in grief but also in gratitude for having known someone as remarkable as Martin. In this difficult time, they find comfort in the belief that he continues to watch over them from above, offering the same reassurance and warmth he gave in life.
Plans for a memorial service have not yet been announced, but those who wish to honor Martin’s memory are encouraged to hold fast to the joy, laughter, and kindness he brought into the world. Sharing stories, photos, and moments of connection will help keep his spirit alive in the hearts of all who knew him.
