Martha and I became good friends as soon as we met at Northeast JH/HS in the 7th grade and until most of our families moved away in different directions 3 years laters. I'm so sorry to learn of her struggles with cancer. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.

We want to extend our deepest sympathy to all of Martha's family. Martha was a sweet Christian friend, who was our prayer partner. She was so kind and a special classmate at Northeast Jr/Sr Highschool. She was also an encourager at Kelley Avenue Christian Church to our family. Our prayers are with you all. We are sorry we are unable to attend her service.
