Roman Martinez

Roman Castro Martinez, 43, of Lubbock, Texas went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, March 19, 2024.  He was born on September 1, 1980 to Joe Martinez and Janie Castaneda. He graduated from Lubbock High School, was a proud Westerner and attended Trinity Church. Roman was a master barber and the proud owner of Goodfellows Grooming Lounge.  His passion was cutting hair. He took pride in his barber shop where “We fix cheap haircuts!” He was a Dallas Cowboy fan who swore this was their year…every year.  He spent years building his cars and bikes to customize them just as he wanted.  Cruising them on a Sunday afternoon was something he enjoyed. He sang everywhere he went and was the true Karaoke King. His kindness, big heart, and smart mouth will be missed.

Roman is survived by his wife Jennifer Benitez Martinez of 21 years, his daughters Angel, Abby, and Maddy Martinez, his father Joe Martinez, his stepfather Albert Castaneda, his siblings Christy (Frank), Cindy (Darin), JoAnn Martinez, Monica (Danny), Joey Martinez, Albert Castaneda, Jr., Gabriel (JoAnn), Vicky (Victor), and Jonathan Castaneda, along with several nieces, nephews, and in-laws he cherished. He is preceded in death by his beloved mother Janie Castaneda and his brothers Sammy and Anthony Castaneda. Roman was loved and will be truly missed by many.
