I am so shocked and sad to read of Martha’s passing. I have no words, other than I am sending prayers to her family. May God bless and comfort you at this time.
I am saddened to hear of Martha’s passing. As if it were yesterday I can still hear Martha’s words to me, There is no one or nothing on earth worth missing missing heaven for. Martha, enjoy the perfect love and presence of your Savior whom you loved and served faithfully.
Thoughts and prayers for the family, loved Martha we’ve been friends for many many years..
Truly blessed to have shared a few years with Martha when she was a teenager at the Fletcher Church Of God. I was in unbelief when I read of her passing but know she’s with her Lord today. My prayers are with her family for comfort and in times of loneliness.
