Martha Probis gained her angel wings on August 17, 2022 while bravely battling COPD. She was born on July 20th, 1937, in Tulsa, OK. Daughter of parents Arthur and Effie Newman. Preceded by beloved daughter Greta Caudill. She is survived by loving daughters Paula Dalton, Cindy Lile and son Raymond Lile, 7 grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren, and 1 great great grandchild.

Her children were her life. There was never a day she did not brag about them all, including her son-in law (Dan) who loved her so much also. Her family was her sole focus, and she worried over and took care of them until the end, sometimes to the exclusion of her own needs. Martha was a free spirit, she believed in flexibility, 'modifications and change. She valued loyalty, honesty, and authenticity. She believed that everyone needs a harmless outlet for stress, and her outlet was working in the Church, cooking, gardening, and shopping for all of her kids and grandchildren. Martha was very passionate about her Christian faith. As a very loyal member of the Church of Faith where she was loved by all. She loved music; all of it; everything from Christian to country.

Martha had an amazing sense of humor and a beautiful laugh! Her wit was razor sharp and she was known to say the most shocking thing she could think of, in hopes of helping you see a new perspective. She made her whole family laugh with her outrageous and exaggerated facial expressions, and all her silly sayings. She was kind, generous and compassionate. Even when she spoke in anger, she was often the first to apologize and to try to heal what was broken. She believed in autonomy and dignity and a person's right to choose the life they want. She struggled with the concept of tough love and was fiercely independent and private. She loved her entire family.  She worried about them, rooted for them, protected them, forgave them, and always kept on loving them.

Martha will be truly missed by all those that she's left behind. Our hearts are so broken by this unexpected loss. She was one of a kind and to be loved by her was to be truly blessed.
