She’ll be much missed, especially by Jack, of course. She was a cheerful and engaged participant at our meetings and we’ll have good memories of her. My condolences and best regards to her family and friends. –Ed Buckner
I am so sorry for your loss. I began working along side of Martha 33 years ago. Her smile, her friendship, her great knowledge when caring for the sick, so many ways she will be missed in my heart . Be assured of my prayers for her continued presence to be felt among you in God’s peace to surround you. With Love, Chris Rice Windy Hill Hospital
Oh I am so sorry to hear this. Very late however I loved Martha and she was such an invaluable help to me as I was starting Wellstar’s Sleep program. I know she has struggled for a long time with health issues and wish you all peace during what must be a very difficult time. She was a dear sweet soul.
