Graveside services for Berylee Martin, 75, West Plains, Missouri, will be held at 12:00 Noon, Friday, September 27, 2013, at State Line Cemetery.

Berylee passed away September 19, 2013, after an aggressive battle with cancer.

He was born February 13, 1938, at Moko, Arkansas, to James Almone "Al" Martin and Juanita Beatrice Chestnut Martin.  He enjoyed a great life the Ozarks has to offer.  He was a simple strong man, an avid quail hunter.  Berylee was a long time resident of West Plains; he was always ready to share a cup of coffee and shoot the bull.

He is survived by his children, Tony Martin, West Plains, Missouri and Jessie Legan, husband, Chris, Springfield, Missouri; four grandchildren, Timmy Squires, West Plains, Missouri, Anthony Martin, West Plains, Missouri, Tonya Martin, stationed at Fort Leonard Wood and Jay Legan, Springfield, Missouri; one brother, Jerry Martin and Family, Prairie Village, Kansas.

His parents, one sister, Alverna Martin and one niece, Kelly Martin, precede him in death.
