I was saddened to find out about this death after the funeral. I am so sorry Glenn. What a sweet, sweet lady and she is missed. Each time I saw her she brought a smile to my face.

Glenn;
You are remembered in our prayers. I shall be ever thankful for Martha's effort to locate me and put me intouch with dads family.

Sincerely; Herb Turner

Martha is remembered by Julie and I in fondness with the delight she always showed and the wonderful ways she treated you, Glenn. The world isn't as good a place without her and her incredible smile.
