My deepest sympathy to Marta's family. I worked with Marta at IBM, Celestica and BAE. She was a dedicated worker and a lovely person. I know she thought deeply of her family because she talked about them all the time.

I remember the first time I met Marda, I loved her immediately. I will miss her wonderful smile and her loving and warm personality. She made me the greatest chicken and mango salad I have ever eaten. I loves talking to her about her heritage and her family, whom she loved so much. Marta was a wonderful asset to second shift at BAE. I will miss her alot as well as many others. I am glad she is at peace . My prayers and love go out to you and your family. Marta was a wonderful friend.

Marta was a very special lady. I will miss seeing her beautiful smile. She was an inspiration, because no matter how poorly she was feeling she had a happy face and a kind word. Blessings to everyone in the family. Marta will be looking down on you from heaven where she is enjoying meeting the angels she loved so much.
