Ella was the accompanist when Ames Comm. Theatre did Amahl and the Night Visitors the year I was music director for it. She was so delightful and work with and so talented! I will always think of her with a smile. My sympathies to Cynthia and her entire family.
I remember the day Mr & Mrs Marten became our next door neighbors. They always waved and were so friendly. I remember Mrs Marten's laugh and beautiful smile! She was an amazing woman and she will be greatly missed! My sympathies to the Marten Family.

Dear Cynthia and Kai. Many nice memories of your mom and how welcome she always made us feel at your house. and her wonderful laugh. Our condolences to you both and to your dad. Steve Jenison & Adam Mackie.
I’m sorry to hear of her passing recently. I only met her once, in the dentist’s office about three years ago. She was such an engaging and funny person. I know Cynthia and now understand Cynthia’s musical talent, her compassion for others, her sense of humor.....her mother and father must have been delightful parents. So, may her mother Rest In Peace. Benette Sherman
