Martin Gauby, 82, of Boise passed away on Monday February 6, 2017 at a local hospital.
Martin was born in Washington, Kansas on September 10, 1934 to Harvey and Mabel Gauby. Martin grew up on various farms in rural Kansas and Texas with his older sisters Betty and Iris. He attended McPherson College in McPherson, Kansas where he met his wife, Edith, and graduated with a degree in religion.
Martin was a kind and gentle man who always had an encouraging word and never met a stranger. He set an example for all of us, encouraging everyone to get along, regardless of our differences. The best thing we can do for him is follow his example and turn and help our neighbors.
An avid sports fan, Martin supported all the sports teams in whichever city he was living. Some of his best recent memories were of watching his Grandchildren and Great-Grandchildren play sports, and enjoying his season tickets to BSU football games. His other passion was searching junk yards and antique stores looking for his next treasure.
Martin is survived by his wife of 60 years, Edith, sister Iris Gould, daughter Norma Lockner, son Sidney (Katherine) Gauby, and son Jeffrey Gauby.
