I practiced medicine with Dr Eastman and Dr Jones 1971-72. When Martha could not be seen she was heard. She was not a shrinking violet. She was a dynamo of activity, moving quickly and calling people 'honey child' along the way. Never one to dawdle around it took even death 99 years to catch up with her. Charles Crim MD
