Dear Rivers & Whittington Families, Mother Martha is greatly missed. She was the Mother of all Moms to me and my children and the children in her neighborhood. Mother Martha had a great heart and spirit. She was a good teacher of many popular subjects. I learned much about cooking, taking care of home and being a good wife and in-law to the Whittington family. She will never be forgotten. Mother Martha always encouraged me to not worry and not take the wrongs done to me, to heart. Live and let-live; forgive and be forgiven. Life is precious and so are the many friendships/relationships you have with family and friends. The Lord has received another ANGEL. a.k.a. Nandi Whittington
