To Martha’s Family

What a beautiful write up about a precious woman.
When I moved back to the area, I joined the Ladies Bowling League. I had the privilege of being on the same team as Martha. We enjoyed many laughs and within a few weeks came to realize we bowled much better if we had a few beers. It was always a joy to see her.
To know you, was to love you Martha.
To all her family, Take Good Care

Sincere sympathy to all of Martha’s family and friends as you cope with your loss of someone so loved by all who knew her.
I always enjoyed working with her at BWRH.Her love and dedication to all of our residents was displayed each time she worked.

Glen and I would like to send our heartfelt condolences to all of Martha’s family. The beautiful obituary captured her as a very loving person who loved her family. Thinking of you all during this sad time.

I am thinking of my sister, Martha, and the much loved, vivacious woman she was, who loved to party and laugh and just have fun. Her laughter made another smile. Her gracious way made a person take a second look. A sister I could turn to for some guidance and advice on life.

To her children and grandchildren and great grandchildren who are left behind to say goodbye to the Matriarch of their family. What a memory was made of her last time celebrating and enjoying her family just 4 days before she had to say her last goodbye. The inner strength of this woman shone through with every battle she endured.

All of us sisters, and her 2 brothers left behind, will miss this beauty. Martha was a bright light in every room. She was a singing partner with us and could rock a dance on the dance floor like no other. Now that you are with those who have gone before us, share in their laughter and music, while those of us down here will learn to live our lives differently, “Until we meet again”. XO

Martha, my Sis! Martha was one of my most tender- loving, compassionate, and caring full of warmth woman, mother, and sister I had the honor to get to know, to love, and will always cherish her memory in my heart. I will miss Martha more than I can put into words. She was always there for me with kind advice when needed, with wide-open arms and heart. Her home was a loving home. She welcomed all with a big smile and an enormous heart. Her laughter is something I will carry with me until the day my Lord takes me home and I can then laugh with her again. I will miss my weekend visits with her, and how we stayed up until way past our bed-times laughing, talking, and just simply having amazing sister time together. I love you dear sister with all my heart. I know you are now with the love of your life, Matthew, and our parents and deceased siblings and that is what gives me a small amount of peace. So until we can see each other and talk over old times again, rest in peace my dear sister, dance around heaven for me and hold the gates open until we can sing our favorite tunes together again. Loving and missing you forever, your sister, Dianne.

We wish to extend our sincere sympathy to the Ducharme family. Cherish your wonderful memories.

I miss you so, so very much, my dear Sis. It is difficult to put into words all the many qualities Martha possessed. She was a trustworthy confidante. I have spent so many weekends pouring out my heart to her, both my sorrows and my joys, knowing that she would understand and lend advice or a helping hand when I needed it. Martha opened her heart and her home to everyone. My thoughts bring me back to Saturday night dances and/or visits. Martha loved to linedance, and she did it so well. Yes, Martha has danced “the last dance; she has left the dance floor. Heaven awaits her now! May you rest in peace, my beautiful sister! I love you forever and always, Helene Malcolm

A family friend and kind neighbour on the Bronson for many years; Martha provided rides for our mother to CWL meetings and shopping etc in exchange for child care and produce from the garden. Martha was brave enough to take us kids along with hers to the beach, which we certainly enjoyed on hot summer days.
She kept an extremely tidy house. It was not uncommon to find her cleaning and singing old country and western songs at the top of her lungs.
Wishing all of the Ducharme families good memories and comfort at this time. She provided so much to ours.

To Aunt Martha’s children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and to all the Ducharme family. Our condolences go out to each of you. May Aunt Martha’s beautiful spirit live on in each of our memories of her.

You have my sincerest condolences.

Rest in Peace Martha a beautiful queen has passed. So much comfort and fun. A whirlwind of busy. Clean and immaculate a true treasure. They don’t make them like this queen. Sending blessings.

Our sincere condolences to all of Martha’s family. She was a lovely aunt who held a special place in our hearts. Sending prayers to her family .

Our condolences to the Ducharme family . R.i.P Martha

So many wonderful memories of Martha and our families growing up together! I’ll always remember her love of the OLD country music – Charlie Pride, Tammy Wynett, etc. She sang it in the car loud and proud on the way to the beach with us! She was special to us as kids and continued to care about all of us throughout our adulthood.
My sincere condolences to Gerard, Judy, Mike, Dan and Charlie and your families.
