R.I.P. Marty Smith

Lee Rampage posted this on April, 28th, 2020:

It’s with the heaviest, grieving heart that I have to tell you Marty and Nancy Smith we’re killed yesterday in a rollover accident in his dune buggy at the imperial sand dunes. This is a photo of his last few hours.

My wife, Tammi and I were in the buggy and were unhurt. We spent at least an hour trying to save their lives before first responders arrived. Marty took his last breath while I was holding his head, keeping his airway clear.

Marty was my best friend and I tried with everything in me to save him while Tammi tried to save Nancy.

There is so much to know about this man and how he wanted to leave this earth when God called him.

Please keep his children, Jillyin, Brooke and Tyler and all his grandkids in your prayers.
