Martha was born in Ada, OK on August 17, 1937, the daughter of Haden Earhart and Verna (Wise) Earhart. She graduated from Sand Springs High School in 1955 and was an active member of the Class of 1955 alumni group. She loved her family, Blue Bell ice cream, and her OU Sooners.

She is preceded in death by her loving husband of 52 years, Tommy Patterson, her father Haden Earhart, mother Verna Earhart, and her brother Gene Earhart.

Martha cherished her family and loved spending time with them. They were her greatest treasure.

We will miss her dearly, and we rejoice knowing that she is now in Jesus' warm embrace and reunited with her beloved Tommy, while she keeps a watchful eye on us.

We love you so much.
