In all my time involved in Knox County Republican Party politics (1982) the sweetest and most sincere individual that I have had the honor of supporting and serving was Martha Phillips. Martha was a genuine public servant. If Martha said it. You could take it to the bank.
Martha had a great life. My only regret for her is that she was unable to enjoy retirement. But then again that just wasn’t Martha. If you wanted to know the truth, Martha would tell you if you were brave enough to ask. If you didn’t want to know the truth, then don’t bother to ask.
Mrs. Martha – I will miss you. To Kelly and the family, Thanks for sharing Mrs. Martha with all of us.
