The family of Martha Harper would like for you to join them in the celebration of her beautiful, blessed life. Mrs. Harper entered this world on Feb. 6, 1930, in Hackleburg as the only daughter of Alfred and Myrtle Faulkner. She attended Judson College in Marion. She was active in several different bridge groups and was a member of Central Baptist Church. Martha's life was enriched by all the family and friends who loved her and told her daily. We all learned to say "I Love You" many times a day because of Martha. She was known for her great sense of humor and the ability to make everyone feel special. She was a true gift from God, who will be deeply missed. Martha was preceded in death in 1983 by her first husband of 32 years, Bill Stackhouse.
