Martin Scott Gulley was born March 22, 2010 in Harris NY. He passed at home peacefully with his loved ones by his side on April, 9th, 2021. He is the son of Jeremy and Jodi Gulley. He spent his entire life at home in Long Eddy with his family.
Martin LIVED with Sanfilippo Syndrome also know as MPS IIIA. He attended Carousel Preschool through the Arc of Delaware County. He then moved to the Center for Discovery for school and therapy. All his teachers and therapist played a major role in his quality of life and are very special to his family.
Martin made everyday count. He traveled whenever he could and made memories everywhere. He had a season pass to Hershey Park where he enjoyed spending time with his niece Evelynn and nephew Kayden, meeting characters and showing them all of beautiful animals. He attended Atlanta Braves games at the old Turner Field as well as the New Sun Trust Park getting to run the bases at both stadiums with his daddy and mommy. One of Martin’s favorite places was the beach. He loved the way the sand felt in his hands and he was so excited when the water would touch his little toes. He was given the chance to go on a Make a Wish trip with his family. On the trip he was able to meet his favorite characters Jake, Sophia, and Mickey and was able to leave his mark at Give Kids the World. Martin showed the world what true unconditional love was. He made the people he met better people.
Martin is survived by his mom and dad, sisters Korin Milucky (Josh), Taylor Terpstra (Aaron), Skylar Morrow and Kylie Gulley. Great grandma Bernice Brownell, Grandma Mickey and Grandpa Bill Ray, Grandma and Grandpa Jerry and Cindy Gulley, and also lots of extended family and friends. Martin is predeceased, by his nana Donna Gulley. Calling hours will be held on April 23, 2021 from 2:00-4:00 & 7:00-9:00 PM at Dakin Funeral Home LP in New Berlin NY.
