Quinten Keyvon Martin
Age 16
Covington, Georgia
A hero reunited with loved ones
His dreams flew high — he hoped to become an Air Force pilot. An honor roll student and dedicated worker, he was “the type of kid you only wish you had,” his uncle said.
At 8 years old, he witnessed the murder of his mother and grandmother and saved his siblings from the same fate. He was a “protector.” To his family, he was a hero.
Quinten Keyvon Martin, 16, was shot and killed in Covington, Georgia, on Oct. 24, 2018, while returning home from his after-school job. Plans called for him to be buried beside his mother and grandmother.
