Martin Philip Zagarinsky, of Indianapolis, passed away on November 12, 2020. Martin was born in Adams, Massachusetts on February 27, 1935 to Harry and Minnie Zagarinsky.

Martin enjoyed hanging out with his grandkids, gardening, collecting clocks, boating on Lake Monroe and supporting Indianapolis sports and cultural organizations like the zoo, the Indy 500 and the Colts. He was a dedicated member of Rock Steady Boxing, the Parkinson’s Awareness Association and the Jewish Community Center, where he loved to socialize and work out.

He was the loving husband of the late Carol Zagarinsky. He is survived by daughters and sons-in-law, Brenda and Charlie Tarzian; and Charlene and Leonard Gringlas; and grandchildren, Sam, Rachel, Dylan and Grady.
