Anne-Marie Fiorella Martin, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully on February 23, 2025, at the age of 68. Born on May 14, 1956, in New Orleans, Louisiana, she was the daughter of Andrew Fiorella and LaVerne Ringenberg Fiorella, both of whom preceded her in death.

Anne-Marie leaves behind her devoted husband of 13 years, William Martin; her sons, Albert Oestriecher III (Kelly), Jeffrey Oestriecher, and Dean Martin; and her daughters, Amelia Johnson (Steve) and Jennifer Tillinghast (Jason). Anne-Marie was a devoted sister to Shelley Guthrie, Karen Faubion (Jack), Andrew Fiorella Jr. (Donna), and Kevin Fiorella (Christine). She was the proud grandmother to Blake Johnson (Elizabeth), Tyler Johnson, Kaylyn Tillinghast-Shipley, Kirsten Malone (Ryan), Alan Oestriecher, and Gene Oestriecher, and the cherished great-grandmother to Greyson Johnson and Axell Shipley.

Anne-Marie was a dedicated educator who retired after 24 years of inspiring students as an English teacher. She spent the majority of her career at Western Oaks Middle School, during which time she was honored as District Teacher of the Year. Her passion for teaching and her love of literature left a lasting impact on her students and colleagues.

Outside of her professional life, Anne-Marie was known for her love of entertaining, cooking, and bringing joy to those around her. She especially cherished her role as "Nonna," lovingly caring for her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the MD Anderson Cancer Center, P.O. Box 4486, Houston, TX 77210-4486 or MDAnderson.org/Gifts.
