It is very sad to hear this news of Martha's passing. My deepest condolences to Martha's family. Martha was always a pleasure to see while she worked at the ACE. Always a kind word or wisecrack, with a watchful eye for those she may help. Thoughts and prayers for you and your family, Martha. Rest in peace.
