❤️ Today, October 26th, we remember and celebrate the birthday of John Martins. He would have been 64 years old today.

John was a larger-than-life figure whose generosity, kindness, and willingness to give back left a lasting impact on the people around him. He had a way of making an impression that people never forgot, and he is missed more than words can express.

The John Martins Foundation exists to keep his memory alive by continuing the legacy he left behind. Through our work supporting burn survivors and their families, we strive to carry on the same spirit of generosity and compassion that John embodied.

Today, we ask you to help us celebrate his life in a special way. ❤️

As a tradition, please leave a comment below sharing a memory you have of John Martins. Whether you knew him personally, worked alongside him, crossed paths with him, or simply have a story to share, we would love to hear it. Every memory helps keep his spirit alive and reminds us of the impact one person can have on so many lives.

Happy 64th birthday, John. We miss you, we love you, and we will continue to honor your legacy every day. ❤️

❤️ THANK YOU FOR MAKING OUR 10TH ANNUAL CAR & TOW TRUCK SHOW SO SPECIAL! ❤️

What an incredible day! Our 10th Annual John Martins Foundation Car & Tow Truck Show was a huge success, and we are beyond grateful to share that, thanks to all of you, we raised over $90,000! ❤️

Take a moment to let that sink in. Over $90,000 that will help us continue supporting burn survivors and their families during some of the most difficult and vulnerable moments of their lives. This is what it’s all about, and we couldn’t have done it without this amazing community.

To everyone who attended, brought a vehicle to the show, volunteered their time, supported our sponsors, made a donation, or helped in any way, THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. Every single person who showed up helped make this day what it was.

A very special thank-you goes to our incredible volunteers. Some of you were there as early as 6:30 AM, setting up in the freezing cold to get everything ready for the day ahead. From setting up in the early morning to keeping things running throughout the show and cleaning up afterward, it is a long, busy, and hectic day. We truly could not pull this off without you. The time, effort, and heart you put into this foundation mean more than words can express. We hope you know just how much you are appreciated! ❤️

Ten years. It’s hard to believe we have reached our 10th Annual Show. We are so grateful for the support this community has shown us over the last decade. Year after year, you continue to show up, and seeing everyone come together for this cause is something we will never take for granted.

At the end of the day, this is about so much more than cars and tow trucks. It’s about people helping people. It’s about being there for burn survivors and families when their lives are turned upside down and they need support the most. Every dollar we raise helps us continue that mission, and we are incredibly proud of the difference this foundation has been able to make.

And, of course, this is all for our beloved John Martins. ❤️ We miss him every single day. Ten years of this show means ten years of keeping his memory alive, honoring his life, and turning our love for him into something that helps others. We know he would be so proud to see what this community has helped build in his honor.

We also want to give a heartfelt thank-you to our amazing sponsors. Your generosity and financial support make events like this possible and allow us to continue doing what we do.

🥈 SILVER SPONSORS

To everyone who has supported us over these past 10 years, whether you’ve been with us since the very beginning or joined us for the first time this year, please know that you are part of something truly special. Together, we have raised over $90,000 through this year’s show to help burn survivors and their families, and that is something we can all be proud of.

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for making our 10th Annual Car & Tow Truck Show one to remember. Thank you for supporting our volunteers, our foundation, our mission, and the legacy of John Martins.

10 years of honoring John. 10 years of community. 10 years of helping burn survivors and their families. And we’re just getting started. ❤️

With love and gratitude,
