Christmas 2014 is happy time for the Martin.s of central Oklahoma who migrated inmass from Bromide, Oklahoma over 50 years ago.  The families of Jimmie, Billie (williams) and Sammy are all prosperous and mostly healthy.  We are spread out over the whole metro area from Yukon to Edmond to Harrah to Newcastle.  About fifty of us according to the latest birth and death count.  Dad was William LaVerne (freck) Martin and mother was Pauline Savana Costner Martin Harper....both now residing in the ivory palaces.

Below are picture and comments from Grand daughter Sara "Maggie" Martin, daughter of our first son and daughter in law Jimmie and Kristen Martin at their vow renewal ceremony at Covent Community Church in Yukon, Ok.

Today my parents have been married for 30 years. Thank you for showing me & the rest of your children what it means to put down your pride for those you love. I'm so blessed to have parents who are so disciplined in faith together. I love you very much. Thank you for everything.
