Not sure what to say?

I am very sorry for your loss . She was always such a beautiful and pleasant woman and always so kind to drop off her bread to us .

Martha was a classmate of mine at Holy Name. We had wonderful memories and happy times. I spoke to her in July when I was visiting up there and I am so happy I did. We had a great conversation and wished each other well as our birthdays were only one day apart. A truly beautiful woman and my sympathy to her lovely family. Rest in peace Martha.

I remember her soda breads, she was a super lady, the last of a great group of ladies.

So very sad to hear this news as I know her family and friends will miss this wonderful soul. I was fortunate enough to spend a nice visit with her this summer, thanks to Ann and what a lovely time it was. You could hear the love of her family and beloved Tommy in her voice and words. She was so very proud of everyone. She talked of his love of golf and the golf tournaments she sponsors to keep his memory alive and of being reunited with her Tommy one day pointing to her wedding day picture...

Deepest condolences go out to the entire McNamara Family. Susan and I were next door neighbors to Martha and Tom for 25+ years. We could not have asked for nicer neighbors or better people. Susan and I loved them both. We will miss Martha every bit as much as we missed Tom after his passing. Rest in peace Martha. I know from my visits with you that you are now with "Tommy" which is where you always wanted to be. May peace be with you both....

To Martha's family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Martha and I had weekly conversations in which she would faithfully add the names of loved ones celebrating birthdays, anniversaries and memorial anniversaries to the Chalice of Salvation prayer list. I loved our chats. She was one very special lady. Please be assured that I will keep you all in my prayers.

Sorry of hear of Martha's passing - she was lovely woman. Laurie Simpson
