Monique Martinez

Monique "Moe" Martinez, a vibrant soul known for her artistic talents and infectious spirit, passed away on July 23, 2025, at the age of 31 in her beloved Denver, Colorado, where she was born on July 11, 1994. Moe was a testament to living life fully, embodying an energy that engaged everyone she met.

Her life was characterized by a relentless passion for creativity. Moe was a talented tattoo artist, her inked creations reflecting her wild heart and boundless imagination. She embraced art in every form, whether through her love for drawing and painting or capturing the essence of the world around her with a playful twist. Her energy went well beyond her art; it lit up the rooms she entered, a blend of eccentricity and humor that drew people to her.

As adventurous as she was artistic, Moe delighted in camping trips and fishing, balancing her free spirit with the pulse of city life. She navigated the dichotomy with the grace of someone who understood the beauty of both worlds. Her ability to express herself wholeheartedly was matched only by her love for her family and friends.

Moe was fiercely devoted to her son, Royal, whom she loved dearly. The joy of motherhood infused her life with purpose and pride, showcasing her strength and determination in all her endeavors. With the support of her father, Leon, siblings Leon, Manuel, and Leilah, and stepmom Joleen, Moe found a deep sense of belonging and love. Her step-grandmother, Gloria (Libby), was also a cherished figure who added warmth to her life.

Though she now joins her mother, Martha, and grandma, Elizabeth, in eternal rest, her legacy continues to shine brightly through the hearts of those she touched. Monique's fearless spirit and loving nature will forever be remembered, leaving behind a tapestry of cherished memories for her family and friends.

Moe lived her life unapologetically, an embodiment of the saying that the best things in life are felt with unrestrained passion. She will be profoundly missed but celebrated in every laugh, every brushstroke, and every shared moment.
