MARTIN – E. Roley 61 of South Yarmouth died at his home Monday July 13, 2015. 
 
He was the husband of Ellen “Ellie” M. (Vallejo) Martin.  They had been married for 19 years. 
 
Born in Washington, DC, Roley was the son of Barbara (Roley) Martin and the late Edwin “Ned” Martin, former voice of the Boston Red Sox.
 
The world is a very different place without Roley Martin.  He leaves us with his most contagious laugh, the absolute goodness of his heart, his spirit of adventure,  and his deep and abiding love of family and friends. We cheer him on and know that he has one of the best seats in Fenway Park, ever hopeful, as his team takes  the field.
 
In addition to his wife and mother, Roley is survived by a son, Spencer Roley Martin of Hanover; a step-son, Andrew Farnsworth of South Yarmouth; a step-daughter, Laura Farnsworth of Berkeley, CA; two sisters, Caroline Martin of Eastham and O’Hara Martin of Clarksville, VA; former brother in-law, Everett Eldredge of Harwich and several nieces and nephews.  
 
A celebration of Roley’s life will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. Saturday August 15 at the Bass River Golf Course, 62 Highbank Road, South Yarmouth, MA 02664.
 
As an expression of sympathy, memorial donations may be made to Massachusetts Special Olympics, 512 Forest Street, Marlborough, MA 01752.
