I´ve known Martha since birth. I couldn´t say Martha so she was always "fluffy" to me. I have a lot of fond memories of her and my mom cooking, canning, playing bonco, and just visiting. She made me a "wedding cake" when I was 5 because that´s what I wanted. And so fortunate she made my actual wedding cake years later. Condolences to the family.

Martha was one of a kind! I just loved her and have been missing her since she stopped coming to the Fostoria Eagles and VFW clubs. She was such a fixture there for so many years. Thankfully, Martha shared her cole slaw recipe with me several years ago, and I'm so happy to have that. It was something we all looked forward to at the club dinners and it's absolutely Wonderful!!
I want to send my sincere condolences to all of Martha's friends and family members ... she will always be so fondly remembered by many of us.
God Bless You Dear Lady...

I loved Martha. Always a smiling face at the vfw. I always had to sing " I love this bar" for her every time she was there. She will be missed greatly. And her Cole slaw was the bomb.....
