Lieutenant Rosen and Officer Valentine came to celebrate with Mrs. Martin and brought her a birthday card and a few gifts.

Like any good Southern lady, Mrs. Martin had a to-do list ready to go for the officers. She had a tree limb fall during a recent storm, so she had the officers drag it over to her burn pile.

Officers said Mrs. Martin enjoys having visitors and is as spry as ever.
