To the Family of Marty Duitch: Your Mother was WONDERFUL. When I lived in Steubenville, I was a member of the same bridge club as Marty. She was always a very loving and dear person who contributed much to her family and friends. Your Dad Bob was a great guy too. I worked with him at Titanium. Sincerest sympathy to all of you for your great loss. I have so many fond memories of Marty. Blessings, Ann Kelley Nolan of Fairfax, Virginia.

I happened to visit the Herald Star obits and saw "Mert's" name there. What a shock!!! She and I have been friends since 1st grade, Wintersville School. Another of The Six Spinsters has gone from our lives. I send condolences to all your family, even though I have not met most of you. Blessings and prayers are also extended.
