Family was everything to Martha. She loved with all of her might and everyone who met her loved her too. Martha was always proud of her family and showed them that through her presence, kind words, warm hugs and “I love yours!”
Martha had a fierce love for sports, especially watching her great grandsons playing hockey or baseball. She also loved the Toronto Blue Jays and the Calgary Flames; most notably TJ Brodie.
The family would like to thank the staff at Park St. Place for loving Martha so much. Thank you also to Nicole, Kelly and Will for your compassion, empathy and professionalism.
