Martha- you will always be in my heart. You shared your deep Catholic faith, corrected my Spanish and reminded me to use my cane. I was blessed to know you and you will never be forgotten.
I met Martha at her son & daughter in laws,Bill and Gail, since we were close in age we had a lot in common. We would sit, visit and laugh. One such time we all went out for dinner, I had to laugh, she made sure she had a Bailey’s, her favorite cocktail.
I will surely miss visiting with her.
This was very touching and peaceful. Rest eternally Martha. Than you for raising an awesome daughter (Frances) I’m blessed to have her as a sister in law.
Peace and blessings
Always Barbara D
