Not sure what to say?

I played field hockey under Jean Martin in the mid-70s. It was a great experience to participate in a team sport, field hockey being one of the few offered to girls at that time. Mrs. Martin was a great teacher. It is wonderful to see what a full life she led. Blessings to her friends and family who will miss her. Sincerely, Kristin Olsen


David and I are thinking of the entire Martin Family during this difficult time. Aunt Jean was a great lady and David will always carry the fond memories of her kindness towards the Brinkman family when Mom got polio.

We're thinking of you and praying for your family. Jean was an active woman who was passionate about her family and about life. So glad she was in your life for so long. Prayers and hugs, Joy and Heinz

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
