Once her children left home she became an avid birdwatcher and traveled extensively in pursuit of her hobby. Marta was known to be sweet, patient, and selfless. She would attribute her longevity to her lifelong habits of eating well, keeping busy, and appreciating nature. She is survived by four children, five grandchildren, and two great grandchildren.
