Martha (also known as Jo to those who knew her well) was a loving mother and treasured grandmother. She was admired by everyone she met for her big heart, warm accepting smile and outspoken love for her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She spent several years living near her daughter and her family in the Chicagoland area and recently joined them in their move back to the Nashville area. She often thanked her family for taking her along on all these new adventures.
