Not sure what to say?

As I reflect on where I am in my life and where I have been and maybe where my life could have gone, according to statistics, I can't help but be reminded of how Martha helped to shape my faith by planting the seed of faith in my heart at such a young age. According to statistics I should have been a high school drop out, a pregnant teen, and a an overall burden on society, however I chose a different path. When I think about what was so different for me versus the millions of people who...

Martha I saw you almost every day for the first 14yrs of my life. How blessed I am to have had such a wonderful person in our familys life. You were there in the good&bad times. You loved us all like we were your family. I hope you know how much we loved you back. Fly high angel and take your well deserved place by Gods side.

I have treasured memories of family gatherings at Great Aunt Martha and Great Uncle Johns house in Franklintown- Easter egg hunts and Christmas gatherings around the dining room table.... and you always remembering to take good care of your feline friends and the neighbors dogs. You are missed and loved always!

In memory of my Aunt and Uncle. You were always very kind to everyone and ready to help everyone, whether it be family, neighbor or friend. I will always love you. There will always be a place in my heart for you both.

It's been years since I've seen you. Had often asked where you were and no one seemed to know. You were a wonderful neighbor and were always like a grandmother to my children. I have never forgotten your warmth and kindness. You brought joy into our lives. I can never thank you enough for showing such compassion. You will never be forgotten.

Martha, Thanks for being mine. You will live on in my lifelong memories as a role model for your positive attitude and cheerful disposition. Thank you for always being thoughtful, sharing and caring, as well as independent and proud.

As my father Ray's fun-loving twin sister, you accepted the challenge to outlive his "hundred and three year life-projections." No matter how he may spin it, you are the declared winner!

Keep smiling, Aunt Martha! Hugs, Dana
