We were so very blessed to have such wonderful neighbors when we lived in Nederland, and Ms. Martha was one of them. It was such a joy to have her as company wether it was while we bathed the dog or watered the plants. She made the place we lived feel like home. I know you are enjoying your time and dancing in heaven. Rest in power sweet lady. We will be keeping your loved ones in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Andrea Garcia and Paul Bloyd Jr.

Larry so sorry for your loss, you were truly a sweetheart to Martha through her years of sickness. Although you will deeply miss her we all know that she is now healed and walking with her children (My sweet Mikey). You've been in my thoughts and prayers. Love Hope and Strength being sent in abundance as you go through this difficult time. "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no once can steal" Love You - Karen Watson

Martha was my older sister, I share many childhood memories of us singing together, dressed alike and being called upon to sing before crowds of people. Little did we realize what a special time this was in our lifetime. Martha was an accomplished pianist, she could sing alto,& I sang soprano. It was always gospel music which we grew up with in our home. Our mother and father would sing around the piano with our brother James, which was so special (When The Roll is Called Up Yonder, I'll Be There.) Our mother was a great seamstress & would ,make all our clothes. We weren't so fond of always dressing alike, but we always looked cute. Martha was a good cook & also could sew. Most of all she was talented playing the piano. She was very pretty and loved to always look nice. Well Martha, I just know you are up in Heaven playing the golden piano and singing with our brother James. What a great reunion you are having with mom and dad & especially James who was such a special part of our life. Love, Glenda
