She surely was a lovely lady with whom I shared books.cary Baker

Martha, you introduced me to your mother many years ago and I realized why you and your two sisters were so wonderful. Love to you all!

Mike and I share in so much love and sympathy to the Rast family. We have loved the Rast girls since college at The University of Alabama and Kappa Delta Sorority. Martha was so attentive to her sweet mother and would update our Sunday School class regularly about her special mother.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Rast family. Sorry for your loss. May the memories shared fill your hearts with joy during this difficult time.

Minnie was truly beautiful inside and out. Hugs and love to all of her wonderful family!!!

Minnie will be missed dearly by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her. Her gentle spirit & contagious smile will be something I personally miss the most! I had the pleasure of styling her hair every week for several years, and I looked forward to seeing her every Wednesday! She was so kind, and always inquired about myself & my family. She is truly one of the best people I have ever met. She shared so much with me about her life & her family, whom she was so proud of! I loved her so...

One of my favorite people. A true lady of grace. I so enjoyed my interaction with her. I was her dentist for many years but also her friend
