Growing up I always admired the way Aunt Martha showed her deep love for Uncle Chris - I especially remember the smiles between them while they told us their many stories! Her unconditional love and devotion to all of you was very apparent. How lucky you are to have had so many years together. We hope that all the memories will help ease the sadness. I will fondly remember her distinctive voice (and laugh!) and the way she always affectionately greeted me, asking "How are you Sweetheart"? Miss that.

Dear Anthony,Sheila,Lori,Jodi and your families,

I am praying that God gives you all comfort and peace through the memories you have and those shared during this time who knew the extraordinary Aunt Martha. One of the characteristics I will most fondly remember are the love and respect she had for her family,especially Uncle Chris. My last memory of her is her wit. At my dad's dinner,I told her that I had a "Betty Crocker" like photo of her posing in front of a feast she had prepared,placed on the front of my recipe box. She flashed a great big grin and said,"I was a good cook,wasn't I? And we both laughed. It is a moment I will treasure. You are so blessed to have a lifetime of moments like that. My heartfelt condolences to each of you.

Summer of 66' I moved to Syracuse with my family. We lived with Aunt Virginia and Uncle Sal for a few weeks before we found our home in East Syracuse. This is when I first met Aunt Martha and Uncle Chris. My mom (Uncle Chris's brother) would take us to the house on kenwood to visit. I remember Aunt Martha always running to give me a kiss and tell me how handsome I was (not true of course). I loved to talk with Uncle Chris about sports and He always asked how I was doing. Aunt Martha was always busy around the house during these visits. It became apparent that she seemed to want everything to be perfect for her family and us. Her kindness and generosity meant so much to me. The Love she had for Uncle Chris and Anthony showed to everyone. Sometimes I would wonder if I would have a family of my own. And now 50 years later I'm so fortunate that I have a beautiful family. Wife Vicki, daughters Stephanie and Lily and Yes a son named CHRIS.

Aunt Martha I'll miss you!
