OZONA - Marty William Acton, 42, went to be with his Lord and Savior suddenly on July 19, 2008, while participating in one of his favorite pastimes, ranch rodeo steer roping. Marty grew up in Ozona, Texas, and was a graduate of Ozona High School and Sul Ross State University. He entered the family ranching business and became well known and respected throughout the West Texas ranching community. He was a dedicated supporter of multiple youth programs and Rodeo Cowboy ministries.

Marty was preceded in death by his father Earl Acton; grandfather Dempster Jones; grandparents Ernest and Preble Steadman Acton; and aunt Robin Jones. Marty loved helping people. He always had a ready smile and a hearty laugh, even for the toughest jobs. He was affectionately called "Ka Ka" by his niece and nephew. His family and many friends will remember and miss the friendly, positive way Marty lived his life. Funeral service will be at 1:00 P.M.
