Martha was the true definition of a neighbor, both in the dictionary and in the bible. Martha was the good Samaritan and we were blessed to have her example and company for 17years. She was a wonderful neighbor, friend, and tease. We will miss her deeply.

To Martha's Family,
As a retired police officer from Tampa Airport, I knew Martha for years and was saddened to hear of her passing. She was a fine person with a soft heart. You had to know her to love her. We haven't lost her-we'll always know where to find her later on. May she rest in peace.
