Martha was such a beautiful lady. She went to school with my mom Rose Rogalla Cisco at the Lacota school. We had good times at Hales years ago, talked about the good old days.. God Bless all the family, Rose Cisco Morrison

Martha was a TRULY remarkable woman I will miss her Christmas cards relating family doings. I will always cherish all the crocheted Christmas tree decorations she made for me!!

Oh, how saddened I am to hear that my Aunt Martha has passed away.....how much she meant to me is something that is hard to describe. We would spend hours talking about crafting and all kinds of things, keeping each other aware of what we were working on. So many memories of this beautiful lady, which will NEVER be forgotten. My sincere sympathy to Uncle Lawrence, Larry, Beverly, and Annette, along with the rest of the Ridley extended family.

I was saddened to hear about the loss of Aunt Martha. I haven't seen any of the family for a very long time but I do remember the younger days when I was little boy and we visited with all. God Bless you. You will be missed.

Dear Larry and Family, I am so sorry to hear and read about Martha's passing. It has been years since living and attending Jericho Country School. It was Martha and Helen Russell who helped hone by sewing skills. I am so grateful for their effort. I have continued to use my sewing to make many many quilts. It was wonderful to read her obit and see that she still was crafting and sharing her skills with her family. The love that was expressed in her obit brought tears to my eyes. I am sure Louie, Tillie, Louie Jr, and Ron are greeting her in heaven with an old-fashion community dinner. Sincere sympathy to you all and God bless you in this time of grief.

I remember the sewing and crafts group that my Mother Stella attended. Mostly during the summer when we came to the farm at Jericho corners and the old school house where I played on the swings. The store run by the Baker's when they had the horseshoe pitching tournaments ( we were spotted 18 points and still lost ) She will be missed .
