Martin R. Estruch, beloved Husband, Father, Grandfather and Great-Grandfather, passed away peacefully at home on April 25, 2019. Martin was born on October 1, 1928 in Cuylerville, NY. He is survived by his wife of almost 70 years, Rita, the love of his life, and his seven children: Kathryn (John) Coniglio, Cynthia (Gar) Lowenguth, Martin (Sue Dantini) Estruch, Patricia Wills, Pamela (Joseph) Torregiano, Susanne Whitham, Elizabeth Estruch and his nine grandchildren, David, Patrick, Jennifer and Brian Wills, Kathryn (William) Coniglio-Skaggs, Joseph, James and Anna Torregiano, and Samantha Whitham and one great-grandchild, Henry William Skaggs. He is also survived by nine siblings: Mary Passamonte, Theresa Gambino, Frances Bianchi, Ricardo Estruch, Jr., Angelina Jacobs, Antoinette Pendergast, Sylvia (Howard) Hanna, Anthony (Shirley) Estruch, Julie Arena and many nieces and nephews. Martin was predeceased by his parents, Ricardo and Angelina Estruch, and his brother, James.

A devoted and loving patriarch, Martin will be remembered as a hard-working family man. He was employed by the Army Corp of Engineers at the Mt. Morris Dam where he retired in 1983 after more than 32 years of service. Martin took great pride in being the proprietor of the Genesee River Hotel and Restaurant. For three generations and over 55 years, it has remained in his family. The "River Hotel" was and continues to be a popular local place for families, friends and the community to gather.

There was nothing Martin enjoyed more than spending summers at Eagle Point on Conesus Lake. For over 40 years he and Rita created many cherished memories at their cottage with their family and many lifelong friends.

For over 30 years, during the winter months, Martin and Rita vacationed in Florida. Together they enjoyed traveling with and visiting their children. He also enjoyed going on trips to see professional baseball games, golfing, boating, watching sporting events and the History Channel.

Martin will be laid to rest in St. Patrick's Cemetery, Mt. Morris, NY at a private family gathering at a later date.
