Martha Sue was my teacher at Christian Home and Bible School in a home economics class. I was not cut out for sewing, cooking, etc., but she was always patient and encouraging for me. I remember her quick-witted humor and Southern accent. Martha Sue, you were cherished on this Earth and sure you are a shining light in Heaven.
