I am just finding out about Martha. She and I grew up together, lived down the street from each other, played together and went to Atherton. We doubled dated when she was dating Jimmy Chinn. She was a wonderful person and I know you all will miss her. God Bless

To the Chinn family: Karen & Mark - my husband & I were at both of your beautiful weddings! still have a picture of your mom at my baby shower some 31 years ago!! Your mom & I worked together at what was called at that time Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kentucky. We had a lot of fun together too! Karen, I remember you getting me some perfume from Lancôme when you worked at the Lancôme counter in Jefferson Mall!! She will definitely be missed by a lot of people!! God bless you all during this difficult time!!

Karen, I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. You may not remember me, I went to Bethlehem Baptist Church with you when we were children. Your mother was our Sunday School teacher. She was a wonderful lady. Condolences to all the family.
