Mary Esther Craig Martin

Mary “Mecky” Esther Craig Martin went to meet her lord the morning of June 21, 2021 in Mesa, Ariz., after a short battle with cancer.

She was preceded in death by her mother, father, four siblings and one great-grandchild.

She is survived by her husband, Dennis Martin, four siblings, 10 children, 25 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and two more greats on the way. She leaves behind a large extended family and friends who will feel the void she has left behind.

A private memorial service was held at her home in Mesa. A final service will be held at Calvary Cemetery in Chadron, Neb., at a later date. Her family asks, in lieu of flowers, that donations be made in her name to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital or the American Cancer Society.
