To the family of Martha Cook Smallwood:
I was really sorry to hear Marti had a stroke, and really sad to know that she left us....all too soon. The last time I saw her was when we visited Louisville in May 2009. I've posted a photo of us that day and one with cousin Johnny, while she was taking care of our Aunt Tenie. Aunt Tenie was very lucky to have such a great caregiver during her last months. What an excellent example of love Marty gave to us, and gave to Aunt Tenie!!
I'll always remember the time when Martha drove back to Lafayette from Louisville, after one of our summer visits to KY. I think it was 1966. We had an 8-passenger Ford station wagon, and had a 'extra seat' in the car that year, so....off we went. We showed her around our town of Lafayette, LA. I don't remember how she got home; she must've flown back.
Our sympathies go out to her sister Susie and brother Kelly, and to all of her extended family, as you grieve and say 'adieu' to Marti, and begin your lives without her presence. She will be remembered fondly by all of us.
Sincerely,
Drew Massicot & Therese Belanger
