Nancy was born in Abilene, Texas on July 6th, 1941. She graduated from Abilene High School then continued to Texas Tech and remained an avid Red Raider fan her whole life. Nancy was married to Don Martin on November 1, 1963. They were married 36 years until Don’s death in 1999.

Nancy worked as an administrative professional in various industries including banking, mining, and residential construction. She and Don moved to Marble Falls in 1993 to open the Cotton Gin, a home décor and bedding boutique. After Don’s passing, Nancy worked in a semi-retired fashion at the Blue Bonnet Café as a cashier. She enjoyed personal Bible study, working in her yard, keeping up with her children, grandchildren and extended family, conservative politics, rooting for the San Antonio Spurs and various college sports. She was actively involved in the church of Christ in whatever city she lived.

Nancy is survived by her son Don Martin Jr. and her daughter Lezli Dotson, her daughter in law Wee Martin and son in law David Dotson, grandchildren Riley Martin, Rebekka Martin, Hope Dotson, Todd Dotson, Cole and Emily Dotson, and Luke and Jessica Dotson. She also precedes her sister Virginia and brother in law Bob Askew, her sister Patricia Stricklen, her brother Fred Richardson, her brother and sister in law Phillip and Becky Martin and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be given to Camp of the Hills, a summer camp and retreat program serving low income children around the state. The family of Nancy Martin wishes to thank everyone who has reached out about her health and expressed loving words of sympathy and condolence.
