In addition to her parents Martha is preceded in death by her loving husband, Thomas Brydon and her brother, Lloyd Porupski.

Survivors include her son, Patrick Brydon, Raleigh, NC; her granddaughter, Azalea Brydon, Raleigh, NC; sister, Norma Murphy, PA.

A Celebration of Martha's life will be held at a later date with day and time to be announced.

Martha was a true friend. She always wore a smile and enjoyed being around friends. I find it hard to believe she's gone because it happened so fast and I wasn't aware of what was going on with her. I will certainly miss our friendship and I will never forget all the good times we had. RIP Martha.
Thanks for all the good times we shared over the past 15 or so years.
