Martha was a very precious lady, a caregiver for her husband of 55 years in his last days, and a caregiver for her husband of 14 years in his last days. God used Martha to bless others as He blessed her with strength and to be His faithful servant. My wife and Martha were very special friends! God bless all this family!
