Spencer, Libby and Powell Funeral Home

As a young teen, Marty’s favorite military base was in Hawaii, Schofield Barracks. Marty enjoyed recalling her escape from the base to climb Sacrifice Mountain. Upon successfully reaching the top, she removed her shoes and sat down to enjoy the tropical flowers, birds and the view. However, Marty was unable to get her shoes back on her swollen, blistered feet for the trip back!
