Martin Gill, 76, life-long resident of Gloversville, passed away unexpectedly on January 5, 2025 at his home. Martin was born on August 12, 1948 in Gloversville to the late Charles Francis and Blanche (Carroll) Gill. He attended local schools, and graduated from Gloversville High School with the class of 1966.
Martin proudly served his country in the United States Air Force for four years, primarily serving in Darmstadt, Germany. After receiving his honorable discharge from the Air Force, Martin began working at the United Parcel Service in Gloversville. He worked in various positions, but primarily worked as a delivery driver in his thirty years with UPS, retiring at the age of 58.
In his retirement, Martin was an active member of the Kingsboro Golf Course in Gloversville. He was also a member of the Bleecker Fish and Game Club, and the Concordia Club. He was a communicant of the former Sacred Heart Church in Gloversville.
Martin is survived by his sister, Barbara Gill of Milwaukee, Wisconsin; his cousins, Brian (Linda) Conroy of Gloversville, and Joni Wyman of Kennebunk, Maine; and by many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and other cousins, as well as many dear friends.
