Our dear Sister Martha believed that beef is what's for dinner. She loved to eat corn dogs and butter, but not at the same time. She was a member of Grace Episcopal Church and worked in the Altar Guild, Women's Bible Study, and facilitator of Wellspring Intercessory. She was a Los Angeles Dodger fan and confirmed sister in the Community of The Paraclete.
Martha is survived by her sons, Charles M. Simpson, Jr. (Maria) of Long Beach, Walter L. Simpson of Mesa, Terrance S. Simpson (Rebecca) of San Dimas; daughter, Jeannine L. Khan of Chandler; sister, Betty L. Robertson of Arlington, WA; grandchildren, Jon C. Adams, Marissa M. Simpson, Christopher C.G. Simpson, Tiffany Kempton, Brittany L. Simpson, Kacie M.
