Martha Adam
Martha Adam, 91 of Cedar Rapids passed away Monday March 24, 2014 at home surrounded by her loving family. She was the daughter of Albert and Emilie Rehm, deceased. She was born in Kristburg, Germany.
She is the sister to eleven siblings, Bertha, Gustav, Albert, Ida, Ferdinand, Otto, Rudolf, Marie, (Martha), Erich, Oskar, and Alfred. Widow of Lawrence Adam.
The wonderful Mother to Darnell, Colorado, Karen, IA, Diane (deceased) Jeffrey, WI, Mitchell and Michael(deceased). Grandmother to Ryan Bell, IA, Mother in Law to Gregory Bell, IA.
She was more than this. She loved cooking and baking, all kinds of crafting and crocheting. She had a green thumb when it came to planting flowers and a garden and loved indoor plants. She loved to make people smile and laugh, loved getting dressed up for any occasion, and when she walked into a room, she put her right hand on her hip, gave a little pivot, left foot in front of her, her left hand in the air and said “Here I am!”, everyone just loved her. She was just so cute.
She was always willing to help others, she was the strongest women we have ever know, no matter what tragedy in life she had to face, she pulled herself together and just did it. She was forgiving, spunky and stubborn too! She loved God and believed in prayer and Angels and we know she is with Him and her family and friends and all our little dogs she loved so much. She is happy and whole once again.
We miss you, but know you are watching and protecting us from above now. We all have so many happy memories, and that is the way it should be. A life well lived. All our love Mom.
In lieu of flowers, if you want to honor her, she requested gifts in her memory to Last Hope Animal Rescue and Critter Crusaders to help all the dogs that need help.
