Jere G. Martin, II, 53, of Lititz, passed away at Lancaster General Hospital on Tuesday, February 9, 2016, following a lengthy illness. Born in Lancaster, Jere was the son of Jere G. and Helen F. (Swinehart) Martin, of Lititz. Jere worked for Fulton Press for 20 years and most recently had worked for Engle Printing. Jere was a devoted Dallas Cowboys fan and loved the Baltimore Orioles. He also enjoyed fishing in his spare time. Jere's last gift, and perhaps his greatest, was the gift of his organs so others might live.

In addition to his parents, Jere is survived by his only daughter, Alexandria M. Martin, a gifted artist, of whom he was so proud. He loved to show off her art to anyone who would show an interest. He is also survived by two sisters: Cheryl L. Tennis, wife of Brett, of Lititz and Christine M. Knudson, wife of Brian, of Dover, PA. He is also survived by his nieces, Lauren and Lisa Tennis.

Funeral Services for Jere will be held at 7PM, on Monday, February 15, 2016 at Charles F. Snyder Jr. Funeral Home & Crematory, 3110 Lititz Pike, Lititz, PA 17543. Family and friends will be received at the funeral home from 6PM-7PM. Interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial contributions in Jere's name be made to New Beginnings Church, PO Box 252, Akron, PA 17501, to help defray the costs of services.
