It is with the deepest sorrow and regret that Krete Industries, Inc. must announce the recent and unexpected loss of Jim Martin, due to complications from hip surgery. Mr. Martin represented Krete Industries, Inc. since April, 1994 in the states of California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon and Washington. During that period, Mr. Martin had not only been a valuable part of Krete Industries, Inc., but also a dear friend. This friendship did not include just our direct organization, but extended to the many customers he had called on over the years. Mr. Martin’s family held a celebration of his life on June 18, 2011 at their home. Krete would like to extend our thoughts and prayers to his wife and family, as well as to all who knew Jim Martin, and enjoyed his friendship.
