Everyone at the museum loved Martha. She was the easiest person to get a long with and always brought positive energy to everyone. She was literally up for anything and such a value to our team. She will be greatly missed and my sincerest condenses to her family as they go through this very difficult time.

The last time we were together was at a Bryan Museum event. If only I knew this was the last time, the very last time I would see her, I would have given her a hug and thanked her for being beautiful, kind, caring, and fun. It always felt good to be with her. She brought joy to our lives. My heart goes out to her family and friends.

I would like to express my deepest condolences to Liz and family. Although I didn't know Martha well, she seemed to be the kind of person I would have like to have known better. Always smiling and relaxed with a joke ready at hand. And so pretty! Liz, I regret that you, Martha, and Missy and I never went and have that glass of wine together that we spoke about. Your precious family is, and will remain, in my prayers.
