In her quiet time, Martha would delve into reading murder mystery novels and she enjoyed listening to R&B music, especially hits of artists like Al Green and Marvin Gaye.

As a VERY vocal and outspoken person, Martha would always tell the truth. She would not be afraid to tell someone her true opinion and many appreciated and relied on her honesty.

Family was of the utmost importance to Martha and she cherished all the time she could spend with her them. Gathering at her home on holidays, especially on Christmas, was a favorite of Martha’s.

A beautiful woman inside and out, Martha was extremely proud of being crowned her High School’s Homecoming Queen.
