Condolence: Words feel so inadequate but here goes. Martha was strong, smart, community minded but above all she was kind and compassionate. Her passing with leave a big gap in the Lunenburg elderfit community and the historical society and in the lives of so many people who benefited from knowing her. It was a privilege to have her as a friend and neighbour. My condolences to all whose lives she touched. We will miss you Martha and our thoughts will turn often to the times we spent with you.

Condolence: Saddened by the loss of one of the most vibrant, enthusiastic women it has been my privilege to know. Dedicated volunteer at Fort Point, tireless manager and instructor for Elderfit, not to mention she blew a mean coronet. Martha will be greatly missed....

Condolence: Dear John and family, please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. Martha was a wonderful person, who impacted many lives, in the pool and out. Christine

Condolence: It was a pleasure to share in the Elderfit Aquacise class where Martha excelled as a teacher. Martha was apppproachable, good natured and very welcoming. This is a sad day for Martha’s beloved family, friends and all those whose lives she touched. She now rests safely in God’s memory, until the day she is called to awaken in His promised paradise.

Condolence: I have lovely memories of Martha from Elderfit classes. She was an exceptional leader, and made the classes fun. I was recovering from an injury, and Elderfit was recommended to me by my doctor, as a low-impact exercise. Even though I was younger than most of the crew, Martha always made me feel welcome. Sincere condolences to the family on your great loss. ~shawn Seaboyer

Condolence: John, I am so sorry to hear of Martha's passing. I am so glad for the time I had to spend with her last week. I enjoyed our chats and the opportunity to pray with her and her smiles at that swan. I am away in Edmonton right now so will likely not be able to attend her service. Martha had a great impact on my life. She was an encouraging voice to all of us in Elderfit. I remember with a smile one class she was at where we would look at each other and do the 2 fingers towards our own eyes and then turn them toward the other. "I'm watching you". I am infinitely blessed to have called her a friend. And I am praying for all of you. Lynne

Condolence: My sincere condolences to Martha's family. She was a wonderful person and an inspiration to all Elderfit participants.
