Martha is a member of our Unit 16 Ladies Auxiliary. She was absent for awhile due to illness but came back volunteering her time and effort to make the Ladies Auxiliary something to be proud and honored once again. The last year 2009-2010 wanting to chair a lot of committee's and show good leadership once again was too much pressure for her weak body. Her strong will was present daily but her body showed the wear and tear. This is the Martha I knew. Thanks. My condolense to the family.
