Guestbook

  1. Our sincere condolences to our friend, Amy, and all of her family on the loss of her grandmother. Martha was an exceptionally sweet lady, and will be missed by all. May she rest in peace, everlasting.

  2. My husband Tom and I were also married on June 11 (a few years after Martha and Des) so we had the privilege of sharing anniversary prayers and receiving Martha’s beautiful cards with her elegant handwriting. I always looked forward to enjoying what Martha would make for Westminster Presbyterian pot-luck meals. She embodied kindness and graciousness.
