Martin was born November 5, 1929 in Worcester, son of the late Anna L. (Sena) and Martin A. Frederico. He graduated from Grafton High School in 1947 and then proudly served in the U.S. Navy aboard the USS Edisto, an Icebreaker traveling to the
North Pole. Following his military service, he married his wife Muriel and together they would celebrate 55 years of marriage. They raised their family in Grafton as Martin began a long career working in the plastics industry, including owning
and operating two of his own businesses.
Those who knew Martin will remember his candor, his love of family and how he treasured the gift of time spent with the people he cared about. Martin was a member of the American Legion Delisle-Goulet Post 92 and a past Grand Knight of the
Knights of Columbus as he and his wife Muriel enjoyed taking KOC bowling trips up and down the East coast. He was also a big Boston sports fan who loved following the Red Sox, Celtics, and Patriots. Martin's family and friends would often find
him at the center of a game of cards and he could always be counted on to keep playing until the last card was dropped even if his luck had already run out. He also loved his time visiting Foxwoods Casino and was frequently seen at the Xtra
Mart at a designated seat where he bought lottery tickets and also enjoying breakfast at The Donut Star in North Grafton. Martin spent the past few years of his life at The Willows in Worcester where he quickly built close friendships that
added to the quality of his life. He will be dearly missed there by many friends. In lieu of flowers his family requests you honor Martin with donations to Worcester VNA Hospice, 120 Thomas St. Worcester, MA 01608
