Martha & I were classmates through high school. Also attended the same church. Visited with her at the nursing home several times; however, was unable to visit lately due to COVID. Sent her a birthday card in Oct, but it was returned; unable to deliver. Thus prompting me to research and finding her obituary. Regretfully, was also too late to attend funeral. Think of her often and of the times we had together. Was also shocked to discover that Don had also past away just a few weeks earlier. God's blessings on their souls.
