Our mother, Martha Cox Fairchild, passed away peacefully one week shy of her 100th birthday. Martha was born in Salem, ID, living her year’s mostly in Idaho and Utah. She was an energetic and curious woman who loved to travel, loved to garden, loved being a member of the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers, loved her church, and especially loved our father Vere, who preceded her in death in 1998. She was accepting of all people and encouraged all of us, her children, to follow our hearts and use of our talents. She will be missed by her many friends, family, and everyone whose lives she touched.
She is survived by her five children: Orvel, Janet, Lee Ann, Jeanine and Marlene, eight grandchildren, a dozen great grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews and their families.
