Martin Oziel Anaya, 54, of Midland, went to be with the Lord on Friday, December 24, 2021. The family will receive friends on Thursday, December 30, 2021 from 6:00PM-8:00PM at Nalley Pickle & Welch Funeral Home & Crematory. No service or burial to follow.

Martin was born on August 6, 1967 to Oziel and Rosa Maria Anaya and raised in Alamo, Texas. Martin completed his education at P-S-J-A High school where he was a part of the cross country team. It was also during his high school time where he met the love of his life, Anita Anaya. Martin and Anita married on September 22, 1986 and started a family soon after. In the summer of 2012, Martin and his family moved to Midland, Texas where he advanced and continued his 25 year career within the oil field. Within these 25 years, he was able to create many wonderful friendships. Martin was a dedicated, hard-working, and loving husband, father, and friend to many. He enjoyed going to buffets, stargazing at night, watching movies with his family, and cooking large meals for his crew members. Martin was well known for his big pot of rice and made sure you never left his home with an empty stomach. On his time off, Martin enjoyed taking road trips with his wife to casinos, cheering on his grandkids at their sporting events, and taking short walks with his furry friend Lefty.

Martin is survived by his wife of 35 years Anita Anaya; daughter, Maryann and husband Efrain Garcia of Odessa, TX; daughter, Sarah Daniels of Midland, TX; son, Joshua and wife Amanda Anaya of Mission, TX; daughter, Samantha Anaya of Midland, TX; grandchildren, Matthew and Lillian Garcia of Odessa, TX; sister Rosie and husband Carlos Camara, and children of Mission, TX; sister Angie and husband Peter De La Rosa, and children of McAllen, TX; sister Toni Anaya, and children of San Antonio, TX; brother Leo and wife Dahlia Anaya, and children of Alamo, TX; sister Norma and husband Adam Morales, and children of Tennessee; brother Alvaro and wife Erika Anaya and children of Fresno, TX; sister-in-law Sandra and husband Raul Suarez, and children of San Juan, TX; sister-in-law Terry and husband Ismael Calderon, and daughter of Edinburg, TX; brother-in-law Cecilio Guerrero, and daughter of Pharr, TX.

Martin is preceded in death by mother, Rosa Maria Anaya of Alamo, TX; father, Oziel Anaya of Alamo, TX; son-in-law, Taylor Stephen Daniels of Midland, TX; in-laws, Martin and Maria Guerrero of San Juan, TX; baby brother, Alvaro; and paternal and maternal grandparents.

The family would like to express their gratitude towards Midland Memorial Hospital and staff, as well as the Daniels, Alvarado/Torres, and Garcia family, and the crew members of Rig 420 with Helmerich and Payne drilling.

In lieu of flowers the family suggests memorials be donated to the American Heart Association and American Diabetes Association.

The family requires that you wear a mask and practice social distancing when attending Martin’s visitation.

Arrangements are under the direction of Nalley-Pickle & Welch Funeral Home & Crematory of Midland. Online condolences may be made at www.npwelch.com.

Thought and prayers for all of you. Below is the Signature Martin used when sending emails throughout H&P. It inspired me every time I read it and am sure it inspired others as well. HE WILL BE MISSED. "Leaders must be tough enough to fight, tender enough to cry, human enough to make mistakes, humble enough to admit them, strong enough to absorb the pain, and resilient enough to bounce back and keep on moving.” Martin Luther king Jr Attitude The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company … a church … a home, or an individual. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for the day. We cannot change our past … we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. Chuck Swindoll No matter how educated, talented, rich, or cool you believe you are, how you treat people ultimately tell all. INTEGRITY IS EVERYTHING" ________________________________________
