Waylon the Imposter, February 2010.

 

 

 

Waylon always seemed to have a "ton of friends".

And then, he had his close friends.

And then, what he called, "his family."

 

I know I have mentioned Waylon's Northwest Missouri State University "family".  Waylon was beyond blessed to have the opportunity to share nearly 2 years with a group of individuals who wholly accepted Waylon.......

who took him in....and let him be who he was......

 

 

Rex and I will never forget Waylon's NWMSU "family"...

 

 

This video was recorded by Sean Feehan and Derek Roberts

 

 

 

 

 

Waylon, caught in the act!

There are certain characteristics and qualities that help define an individual.  These certain qualities, trademarks, are usually known by many who are familiar with a certain individual.

I feel Waylon had many.

and if you knew Waylon, you know what I am talking about.....

 

Justin Hurt, one of Waylon's best friends, posted this on YouTube.  This was recorded at Seaworld.....California's High School band trip, to Florida in 2008.

 

Waylon played the drums 4 years at CHS.  He was a proud member of band..... 

Waylon marched to a beat all his own..

proudly.

 

This video shows Waylon dancing......

well......let's just say......

it shows Waylon.........in only what some may call,

 

Waylon style!

 

 

Thank you Justin, for always, always being there for Waylon.

We miss you, and you are always welcomed in our home. 

 

 

 

 

Waylon, just doing what he did best!

Making memories.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2nd Annual Waylon Martensen 5K, August 18, 2012

Waylon

2 Timothy 4: 6-8

For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time has come for my departure.  I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.  Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day---and not only me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.

 

This site is dedicated to the memory of

Waylon Michael Martensen

2nd Annual 5 K

Walk/Run

On August 18, 2012 the 2nd Annual Waylon Martensen 5K was held at the California High School.  Friends, family, teammates, runners, high school and college friends attended to honor Waylon in a "sport" that he was passionate about.

Waylon ran with perseverance.
