Two years have passed by, and I think about my sister often but more so during the holidays. She always looked forward to Thanksgiving and Xmas. I miss her and I hope she is at peace, always

Today is January 21, 2018. My thoughts are with my sister. We would call each other long distance. I miss Martha and this morning I thought I heard her voice say "hello". May she be at peace and no more pain.

Martha was dear and sweet and I loved her and Brad. She always was positive and I enjoyed when she use to come shop and visit at Geneseo Wegmans when I'd be working.. That smile was always there.. Be looking for you and Brad when its time to go home to our Lord. Love, Lenny

Martha was a classmate of mine at Livonia Central School. We even lived in the same house at one time. Her family uptairs and mine downstairs. Fond memories of going to Callahan's Hot Dog stand. Martha was a wonderful person and with her passing she can now be without pain and discomfort. God Bless and RIP.

Mart was not one to dwell on her circumstances or challenges.

She chose instead to embrace life, family and friends.

Missed, but never forgotten.
