We are sorry to learn of Martha's passing. She was full of joy and energy--a live wire who was never boring and always fun to be with. She loved the Lord and others. That's about as good as it gets. 

Heaven is no doubt a brighter place because of her presence. Our sympathy to Brenda and the other members of her family.

You are so missed,I had the pleasure of working and taking care of you .Such a sweet lady that I dear love so much 

I saw Mrs Martha at Calvary and worked with her at daycare.  She always had a sweet kiss for me but that beautiful smile was what made everyone's day.  She always knew what to say. What a sweet soul 💖.  I know Mr Bill was waiting with open arms.  Praying for her family and dear friends 🙏 

Kim , Brenda and the rest of the family, our hearts are sad, but our spirit is flying high knowing Mrs. Martha got her wings Sunday.  Sorry for your loss and ours too. Our prayers are with you, and the rest of the family. She was a very sweet lady, class member, and good friend.  That big smile was her trade mark. We will miss her and will be praying for you all.  Ms. Martha and your father was one of the first families to make us feel welcome at Calvary. In my devotions, when my mom passed, I found this comforting maybe you will too.  Death is not the end of life, but rather the beginning of eternal life. With that knowledge, Paul wrote this in I Thessalonians 4:13, “Our friends, we want you to know the truth about those who have died, so that you will not be sad, as are those who have no hope.” Death doesn't make us grieve uncontrollably and hopelessly because it is not final for a believer. We can still grieve, and we can still feel the loss because of their absence though.
In the final verse of I Thessalonians 4:18, Paul wrote, “Therefore comfort and encourage one another with these words.” He knew that we would need encouragement and comfort in our time of grief. So, while you're grieving and hurting over the loss of your sweet Mother, it's ok to do it in your own way, but don't do it as one who is hopeless.  

So, let us grieve when we must, but God forbid that we grieve as the hopeless do. 
In His hands, we find solace.
In His heart, we find rest. 
In His time, we find meaning. 
In His eyes, we are blessed. 
In His strength, we're made mighty. 
In His light, morning breaks. 
In His Word, He has promised.
In His coming, sleepers wake.
Take comfort in knowing that the same reason we celebrate Christ’s birth is the same reason we have hope.  Love and prayers to you and the rest of the family.  We will be lifting you all up in prayer for comfort and strength.

Such a special lady.   She will be missed 

Oh Mrs.Martha the memories flood my mind. I was so blessed that I got to work side by side! You always gave the best hugs and advice (even when I did not ask) Your love for the Lord shined everyday! I know you are rejoicing with our Lord!  

We were so blessed to know Ms. Martha and Mr. Bill.  Ms. Martha was a devoted, lovely, Christian lady, always showing a Christ-like attitude.  She has finished the race and enjoying  the glory of heaven.  Our sympathy and prayers for the family.

Martha was an awesome lady. She was always eager to pray with you and for you and your needs. Martha was my "other Mother". She and I grew close when I was working at the daycare with her. She amazed me at her ability to multi-task in the kitchen, help with potty breaks, sing songs, answer the phone all while cooking and distributing lunch for the children. She leaves behind the kind of legacy that I want to leave. She is definitely  a role model to follow.

Thank you Ms. Martha for praying me into the Calvary Church Family and for being a wonderful example of a Godly woman for me to look up to.  Love you and Bill too !
