So sorry for the loss of your wonderful Mom. She was a beautiful person who has been our friend for a very long time since our times growing up in Ayton. Fritz and Eylene were always great friends to our parents (Norm and Ruth Becker). Enjoy all the fantastic memories you have. Thinking of you. Bonnie, Brenda, Bev, Belinda and Bea Becker

Barb, Cathy and the other kids. Sorry for the loss of your mom. No one can ever replace her . You were lucky to have her in your lives for so long, but it's never easy saying goodbye. She will always be by your side, on a sunny day she will be your sunshine. At times when your feeling lonely, she will be in your heart. Just take a look around and you can see how she much influence she gave to your lives. We will miss her and always keep her near to us.

Dearest Barb and the "Martin" Family So sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. She and Fred were the perfect couple and she was such a lovely lady with a smile for everyone. Our theatre group will certainly miss her optimistic outlook and her always cheerful smiles. Much love from the court. Shirley & Charlie Cornish

Dear Cathy, Barb and all, Dave and I loved your Mom and Dad and the 'home' that was always open when we were in London so many years ago. Your Mom had a smile that lit the room and a laugh I can still hear and see on her sweet face. They both placed such value on family and friends and celebrating joys and milestones with them. We were honored to be considered their friends. They made you want to be a better person just knowing them. Our deepest condolences with love, Dave and Maureen

Dear Cathy and all the Martin family - Your Mom was such a a wonderful, loving, accepting, exceptional person. She and your Das always welcomed us into your home. For many of us it was a home away from home during university. I am so sad for your loss, as I know how it feels when both one's parents are gone. I am happy for her though as she would be happy to be returning to the Lord, and would be celebrating her return home. Much love and prayers that all the wonderful memories of your lives with her will warm and health your hearts.Love, Mariana

"Sadly missed by extended family and friends." The very second one walked into the Martin Family living room, you knew you were home. again. Cathy- you are one of my forever friends & I now know you are also Mother Martin, Jr; meeting your Mother, however briefly, was an eyeopener as to why YOU are as special as you are. Your Mother was so cool (how cool was she?), I would never even THINK of cheating while playing cards/games with her. Love to you, Barb, Steve and all. As I said, the best observation - "That Mrs Martin sure had a good run." Love always, ~Ruth

Cathy & Family, I am sad to read of your dear mother's death today. Both your parents were such wonderful, warm & welcoming people. I think they adopted the entire UWO Nursing Class of '77 into their home and extended family! I feel privileged to have known them both. Sending caring love to you and your family, Linda Osmond
