A talented cook, everyone always found all of their favorite recipes with Ms. Mattie. In other moments, you might likely find her reading her Bible or cheering on her favorite basketball team, the University of Kentucky Wildcats.  She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Troy (T. C.) Martin and one son, Jeff Martin. Mattie is survived by her children, Tommy C. Martin (Amparo) of Orlando, Florida, Paul Martin (Polly) of Astatula, Florida, and Ann Martin of Fort Lauderdale, Florida along with numerous grandchildren and great grandchildren.  Visitation will be 11:00 A.M. until 12:00 P.M.

Martin.  In lieu of flowers, the Martin family invites you to make a donation in Ms. Mattie’s name to any charity of your choice.  Arrangements by Hearne Funeral Home, Inc.
