Oh Brian, David, and Betty, I'm so sad to read of this. I lost my contacts and phone was broken, and haven't been able to find your information. I was trying to figure out how to contact you all, and found this. You're all in my heart.

Bryan, David, & Sharon,
We are so very sorry for your loss. Ms Martha Jane was special to our family. She & my mother, Martha Davis, loved to sing at church together & called themselves the ‘M & M’s’; they are now singing together in heaven with Willie & Wallace cheering them on. Your parents were so good to mine during a hard time of their lives. We’ll forever be appreciative & think of them fondly. May you find comfort in our Savior’s love in the coming days.
With Sincere Sympathy,’
Sam & Belinda Hill

It was my pleasure to meet Mrs Martha thin given the opertunity to care for her. She is a Lady I will always remember and carry with me in my heart. The friends I have made along the way are priceless. Every Saturday without fail was as she would say Gossip Day she would call her Tennessee family in a certain order every Saturday, thin Saturday night was the Marty Stewart Show. We also enjoyed watching The Gaithers when we could catch them.She loved to sing. She will be missed.
