Dear Family of Catherine Martin,

I've known this lady almost all my life. My grandparents lived 3 doors away from the Martin family. Mary and I became fast friends as young children. Catherine always welcomed me into their home where I learned to play many card games. Catherine was a lady of faith, family, and good works.

Love to all,
Ann Jaffin
