I lived across the street from the Minko family for 22 years. Although I can't say that I knew Martha all that well, what I remember most was that she was always happy and very friendly. She looked out for the neighbors and watched out for the safety of our homes when we were gone. If she didn't see my mother around for a while, she would call to inquire about her well being. She really cared about people. My mother knew Martha and always enjoyed her company and on a few occasions in the last few years went over her house and played Aggravation. She couldn't stop talking about how much fun she had. Back in the day, the women in the neighborhood had "card parties" and would take turns hosting. As a child, I remember Martha's laugh as being infectious. She was so full of life. Most importantly, Martha raised a large family and it is obvious she did a fantastic job because the Minko's are such a great family. That speaks volumes about Martha. Myself and my family send the Minko family our deepest sympathies and our prayers and thoughts are with you. Be assured that Martha has reached the kingdom of heaven and is in everlasting life with God.
Sincerely,
Noreen Nash and family.
