It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of M Elizabeth "Liz" Martin, age 88, of Springhill.  Liz passed away at the Cumberland Regional Health Care Centre on Friday, September 24, 2021.

Born in Windham Hill, NS, she was a daughter of the late Murray and Edith (Purdy) Herrett.

Liz was a generous person who was loved by many.  If you went to her home, you either had something to eat or left with something in your hands.

She will be dearly missed by her sons, Ronald (Shirley), Moncton, NB, Donald (Shirley), Springhill; daughters, Janet (Bill) Fraser, Antigonish, Darlene Hunter of Springhill; son in law Tim Martin, Amherst; sisters, Sheila Mattinson, BC, Barbara (Ralph) Stevens, Wyvern, Cordelia Holden, Amherst; brothers, O'Dare, BC, Clyde, BC, Ronnie (Femmie), Windham, Billy (Marion), BC, and Philip, Windham; 14 grandchildren; numerous great and great great grandchildren; several nieces and nephews. 

She was predeceased by her husband Ralph J. Martin; companion Herb Pepperdine; daughters Gloria Martin and Brenda Lockhart; son in law Norman Hunter; grandson Tommy; sisters Ruby Ripley and Rhea Farrell; brothers Harry and Winston.

Arrangements are under the care and guidance of A H Brown Funeral Home, 5 McFarlane Street, Springhill, NS (902-597-2361).  In keeping with Liz's wishes, cremation has taken place and a private graveside service will take place in the Hillside Cemetery, Springhill at a later date.
