You've lived a God fearing and a child of God lifestyle...and now it's time to take your rest. I love you Aunt MARTHA TATE CLAWSON, you'll be fondly remembered. Lovingly, your niece Clarissa Tate. 💜🌹
You will always be on our hearts, Martha. Take your rest, Deaconess Martha Clawson. Love always, Deacon and Deaconess Maurice and Chenita Floyd, Jacolya and Matthew

Aunt Martha, in my heart you were the same yesterday as you are today. You always brought warmth and gladness with your smile, your soft words and especially the way you would laugh and let your head drop. It's amazing how just the thought of you brings a smile to my face. I'm sure you did the same for many more. Rest in peace and in God's arms. You are forever loved.
