Martha was a joy to many, always upbeat and full of energy. I enjoyed my visits and phone conversations with her. She would listen to you and remember what you said. I once mentioned to her how I missed my mothers mince meat pie. The next day she made me one. She was always doing things for others. I will miss that sweet woman. She was like an angel.

Martha was my second mother at Presbyterian Village . She touched my heart in the five short years I knew this wonderful lady. We shared many games at the village which she and I loved and constantly made jokes to each other ! Maybe me more than her . I am so blessed to have known her . She touched my life in a way few people know . She will be dearly missed by me but I know she was ready to be with the Lord who she loved so much Praying for all in the family , most of all Betty her daughter , who I knew so well and lovedâ¤ï¸
