Martha Ann Strodtman was born June 20, 1936 in Glasgow, Howard County, MO, a daughter to Clarence and Genevieve (Flaspohler) Yung.  She graduated from Glasgow High School in 1954.  On December 28, 1955, Martha married Ralph Glenn Strodtman at St. Mary Church in Glasgow.  Together they enjoyed over 52 years of marriage.  Ralph preceded her in death on June 6, 2008.  Early in Martha’s career, she held jobs at the local drug store and fabric shop in downtown Glasgow.  However, Martha was primarily a homemaker, nourishing, raising and providing for her family.  She loved gardening and canning her produce, and raising chickens on the family farm.  Martha was a tremendous cook and always provided a hearty meal for her family and visitors.  She was a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister and friend.  Martha will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
