Martin F. Dougherty, 63, of Williamsport, passed away on Friday, July 10, 2026 at UPMC Williamsport. He is survived by his partner of over 26 years, Cindy Anderson.

Born November 19, 1962 in Williamsport, he was a son of the late Martin F. and Winifred (Purvin) Dougherty, as well as a step-son of the late Leigh Dougherty.
