It is with a heavy and sad heart that we extend our deepest sympathy to the family of Martine. As newcomers to Korea Road we were greeted first by Mrs. O'Halloran "Grandma" and Martine welcoming us to the community, of course Martine was in heels. Regardless of where we saw her she took the time to talk, she was never too busy to share stories about the children and their families. In the 27 years of knowing her I never saw a frown on her face.I cannot say that anyone could make that statement about many people.
Thank you for sharing Martine with our family, we are Blessed to have known her.
Simuel, Anne, Andrew and Adam Washington
