He was preceded in death by his parents, Abel and Effie Cantrelle Martin; brother, Carol Cantrelle Sr.; and sister, Joyce Marcel.

The family would like to thank Terrebonne General CCU and staff and also a very special thanks to Dr. Jules Dupont and staff for their many years of care and compassion.
