To the Clancy Family,



I would like to send my deepest sympathy to all of you. I am a former student of Martha's and during the time I knew her at Fontbonne and the years to follow she became not only a teacher but, an inspiration. Martha taught me to appreciate music and to give that gift to others. As I proceed with my own music career I will continue to think of her and the qualities that she possesed and hope that I can pass those on to others. Martha - continue to sing with the angels.

To all the Clancys,

I only got to know Martha towards the end of her life, but I want you to know it was a truly rich experience for me. Even though it was a sad time, I'm glad to have been a part of it. It was a blessing for me to see such a strong caring family come together in hard times with support and love for each other. To Jim and Marion....a job well done. To all Marthas' brothers and sisters and their families..... you are so fortunate to have each other. Keep the faith. To Martha..... Enjoy heaven.....and until we meet again,

peace and love,

joan

My family and I want to extend our deepest sympathy to the entire Clancy family in the loss of Martha. She was such a marvelous musician and I will always remember the pleasure of singing next to her at St. Agatha's, and especially her Christmas signature - Jesu Bambino. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

When I think of Martha she will always be singing like an angel. I so enjoyed knowing her during our years in the Fontbonne chorus and was glad to have been able to see her at our class reunion last year. She made a mark as a kind and loving person and I offer you all my deepest condolences.

My condolences go out to all the Clancy family as well as my heartfelt prayers. I liked to take my mother to church just to hear Martha sing, I listen to her c.d. at least once a week, when she sings Thw Holy city it actually mesmerizes me. She has the voice of an angel & now she's singing with them.
