Marty was a good friend to a beginning teacher and new bride at Abraham Lincon High School 1954-58. Moved to San Diego, but we always kept in touch and shared stories of her Corgis and my sons. She will sorely be missed.

Our sympathy to Marty's family.
She set a high professional standard as an administrator in SFUSD. She was also a very kind and loving friend. It is not only the corgis who will miss her.

My sympathies go to Dorothy. I knew Marty from 1966 when my mother bought our first corgi Dylan. She was always a wonderful, kind, person who loved not only corgis, kids but also her family.
I know she will be missed. May God be with her and Dorothy

My sympathies to Margaret's family. Margaret worked with my husband, Jim at Pelton Jr. High. She intoduced us to our first corgi and we loved them thereafter. She was a wonderful lady and I know she will be missed in the "Corgi world".
Fondly,
