Grandma was an amazing person, she loved with all her heart and when you hurt she share the hurt, when I was younger and Daddy married my mom, I remember Grandma accepting me however she told me "Don't call me grandma cause it made her feel old and she wasn't old!" Later in life she apologized for this because she "couldn't ask for a better grand-daughter and she was so proud of me." When she found out I quit working in the law field she was a little upset (I got a lecture) because I spent a lot of my life in school to do what I dreamed of as a child; I had told her about my love for cooking, she accepted that but I could tell she didn't like it very much; well grandma I am back in law and making you proud from heaven. I love you and even though I couldn't be there, you are always in my thoughts and heart. She had the best sense of humor and nothing surprised or offended her she always made the most of any situation.
I love and miss you Little Mother. My heart has another major crack in it and hurts tremendously without you. I will be so glad to seeyou in Heaven. We will sing as long as we want. God won't mind. I love you.
I remember when your dad and Martha came to live with us for awhile. Mom really enjoyed it. It was awesome times. Aunt Martha is an amazing woman.
I am so sorry for the loss of this special woman. She was always so kind, thoughtful and generous. She always made our “favorite “ birthday goodie for Sam’s co-workers. She always treated us as if we were family. She was just so sweet and kind. My heart goes out to the family as they have lost an amazing matriarch. Sending prayers and love.

Aunt Martha was always a beautiful soul and one of the kindest and best people I know. She was truly a special lady with a heart of gold and the best aunt. My favorite memory is of her and the two little pups, Thunder and Lightning, playing.
