CandleDear Steve & family,
I will always admire Martha's love for family. She made sure her mother could attend events and enjoyed her company. When we talked "grandchildren", immediately her eyes sparkled and a huge smile appeared. Martha loved her family deeply!
Ron and I are with our grandsons in Cleveland now. We will not be able to attend today's services. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with your family and friends. With love,

CandleOur deepest sympathies to Steve & all of Martha's family. Had the pleasure of riding on a RideShare commuter van that Martha drove for several years. She was a joy to know and everyone who knew her on the van will greatly miss her.
