Minerva Martin Obituary
Minerva Z. Martin, 92, of Stevens passed away peacefully on December 5, 2025, at Luther Acres in Lititz. Born on November 13, 1933, in Brecknock Township, Minerva was a daughter of the late Oliver H. and Mary W. (Zimmerman) Sensenig.
Minerva leaves behind a rich legacy of love and dedication, marked by her hard work at Twin Kiss and Triple G, and her 22 years of service as a waitress at the Pancake Farm. She was a cherished member of the Reamstown Church of God and the Family Circle in Akron. Her faith played an integral role in her life, guiding her values and actions. A family-oriented individual, she found joy in walking, spending quality time with her family, and attending church services. The relationships she nurtured with friends and family were the cornerstone of her existence, and her home was always open to loved ones. Minerva's spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew her, leaving a lasting impression through her kindness, faith, and unwavering love for her family.
She is survived by her two children, Dale O. (Sue) Martin of Stevens, and Donna L. (Chris) Hales-Hahn of Las Cruces, NM; seven grandchildren: Ryan Martin, Chad Martin, Courtney Sauder, Kristin Hahn, Jordan Martin, Jessica Martin, and Austin Hales; and twelve great-grandchildren: Trinity, Juliana, Gavin, Troy, Nora, Christian, Kate, Sarah, Jasper, Lainey, Alden, and Peter. Minerva was predeceased by four siblings, LeRoy Sensenig, Raymond Sensenig, Melvin Sensenig, and Shirley Sensenig.
A Viewing will be held on Wednesday, Dec. 10th, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Good Sipler Funeral & Cremation Centre, Inc; 34 N. Reamstown Road, Reamstown (Stevens), PA 17567.
