Sue Madison Martin

Sue (Walker) Martin, 85, passed away December 3, 2015 in Clear Lake City after a long illness. Born in Lincoln, Nebraska, March 13, 1930, she and her husband, Richard "Dick" Martin raised four devoted children. Mom was an active volunteer at Bayshore Medical Center throughout the 70's and the early 80's. When her children were grown, she began working at San Jacinto College, eventually becoming the executive assistant to the college president. Mom loved her family deeply, especially spending time and playing games with her grandchildren. She was an avid bridge player and until recently could be found at a bridge table playing twice a week. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband to whom she was married more than 50 years and is survived by her four children daughter Vicky Wheeler, sons Michael and his wife Bonnie, David and his wife Elizabeth, and John and his fiancé Deborah Brown; eight grandchildren; her brother Steve Fiedler and his family; and her cat April. Mom received loving care from her daughter, Vicky, over the final year of her life and for that we want to pay special tribute and will always be grateful to our sister. Vicky gave 1000% and was unflinchingly by Mom's side through the worst of times. Mom was deeply appreciative of all Vicky did every day. A memorial service will be held at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church 18220 Upper Bay Rd. Houston, TX 77058 at 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, December 9, 2015. Donations may be made in lieu of flowers to Gloria Dei Lutheran Church. Thank you Mom for the love you gave us, the lessons you taught us and the example you set for us. We love you and will miss you.
