Such a wonderful lady! My dad, Marty’s older brother, would often talk about his little sister’s accomplishments, always with a beaming smile. She was a role model to us all, but most of all she was a loving aunt with a huge heart.. Rest peacefully. You will be greatly missed but always remembered.

Marty’s impact on the people in her life is vast and lasting. She gave her all to those she held near and dear. I have so many memories it is hard to chose just one. Our first encounter at a friend’s funeral will forever be etched in my mind. Rest easy, Marty. All my love.

As I spend Christmas alone today, I have been stumbling on memories and doing a lot of reflection.
Aunt Marty was so much like her brother, my dad, that in the same room with them was incredible. Their intelligence was off the scale.
She had a heart of gold and being near her was uplifting and I wanted to glean all I could.
She was So good to me as the lil dork city girl, I felt I was. Felt like a Wonder Woman around her--she made me believe I could do so much.
Loved going down south to see kinfolk mostly to see her. She held a lot of my dad left in her..all I had. I bawled like a baby last time I saw her, when leaving, as I felt that was goodbye.
I miss that incredible lady, in so many ways.
Love you Auntie.
