We first met Martha in church before she married Buddy. She was always a warm, sweet person and always there when needed. She will be sorely missed.

Upon the passing of Aunt Martha, now the two are together once again. Uncle Buddy and Aunt Martha meant a great deal to our family. We remember traveling to Houston to visit, sharing many wonderful meals together and family stories. Aunt Martha taught us to make Cream-Chip Beef which is a family favorite. There were many hours of playing golf in the foyer with the kids and as they will always remember the "magic Cabinet" with old toys. God has blessed us by being able to spend time together with them.

Such a beautiful and sweet person, an angel on earth who has now joined her loving spouse. We will miss you. Your doctor and his nurses will treasure the time spent with you.

Farewell to the best of friends Martha and Buddy. No more good times in Destin, Florida. It was great while it lasted.
