Memories, God's gift to us. She was heaven sent to my mom. When they talked together and Aunt Martine would laugh, it was the sweet sound of joy, a laughter that will not be easily forgotten. If I was to name her spirit, it would be the expression of life. She was loved.

Denny, Kieth, Rose Ann & the Murphy family, Martine was one of a kind. My memories of her are of a classy & graceful kind woman & mother. My sisters and I grew up with Doug & you, Denny then I grew up with Greg & you, Kieth. Rose Ann, you were the little Princess to your four big brothers. To John's children, I've been told how you loved and cared for Martine.
I saw she & John a few years ago and they both glowed with happiness. They had returned from a vacation on the Hawaiian Islands and we compared our joys of visiting such a beautiful place.
I think the time she had with John was her reward for her earlier heartache.
This wise and wonderful lady will be waiting with the rest of your family in Heaven.

To Miss Martine's family - we are so sorry for your great loss! We love this picture of her made several years ago and this is exactly how we want to remember her. She was feisty and full of life and was an inspiration to us all. When I went to work at the shop, She was one of my mentors and she taught me so much when she was A&S's Secretary/Bookkeeper. She was one of a kind who kept us all in line. I know Dad hated to see her retire. We always enjoyed her return visits to the office to check in with all of us. Please know your family is in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time and for the days ahead! God bless you all
