The Bakersfield Californian 
Dora Duran Martinez
May 19, 1935 January 30, 2005

Dora Duran Martinez was born in Buttonwillow, California on May 19, 1935 and 
her loved ones were present when she passed on Sunday morning, January 30, 
2005, in Bakersfield, CA. 

Dora was a licensed Beautician and a devoted Homemaker. As a young single 
mother, she always provided for her young children. She was stern, in her own 
loving way, to instill within her children the proper morals of life. Through 
it all, she was a wonderful mother and was extremely loved by all her 
children. She had a witty, sense of humor, with enlightenment, and was always 
there to help when in need. To this moment, words could never say it all.

Loving her and missing her are John, her husband of 40 years and her four 
children: daughter, Lydia and husband, Ernie Alvizo, their son, Ernie Jr.; 
son, Fred and wife, Delia, their children, Amber, Aaron, Arel, and Adriel; 
son, Mike Martinez; son, James and wife, Crystal, their children, James John 
and Faith. Dora is survived by brother, Alfred Duran and his wife, Lola; 
sister, Carmen Sanchez; sister, Magda and her husband, Tony Vasques; sister, 
Olympia Duran and sister, Armida and her husband, Roque Barreraz. She will 
truly be missed by all her nephews, nieces, friends and neighbors.

The family would like to especially thank, Dr. Edward Brown and his estuary of 
colleagues; the doctors and staff of nurses at the Mercy Hospitals; Greenlawn 
Mortuary and Saint Frances Church.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Cancer Society.
