Gene and Randy, I'm so sorry this happened at this time. I know how hard it is to lose a mother. Aunt Verttina was always loving and welcoming to me the many times I stayed with you. Many good times and great memories. Aunt Vertina was a wonderful person and will be greatly missed.
Tried to post this Monday but it didn't take. Trying again.

Gene and Randy, and relatives of Vertina Martin, I want to send my sincere condolences. It was a privilege to have known Jack and Vertina and Gene and Randy over the years. It was always a pleasure to be in the home of Jack and Vertina , Gene and Randy when I was Pastor at Walker's Corner several years ago. Vertina was very dedicated to helping and caring for other people. God bless.
