I have known Minnie all of my life as a precious member of my dad’s family. ALWAYS, she shared a smile and expressed love to us. I also remember her love of pink and square dancing!
Minnie will be missed and I want to express condolences to all she loved.

I meet Minnie in 2010 when I married her nephew Tim Martin. She instantly made me feel like family right away. We always had Sunday dinner at her sister’s house Edna Martin and it wasn’t complete without Minnie there. I always loved hearing her stories about when she was younger and all the stories about her square dancing. Minnie will surly be missed and never forgotten.
