Nancy Martin

January 30, 1935 — April 29, 2025

Toledo, Ohio

Nancy Martin, born on January 30, 1935, in Glasgow, Scotland, passed away peacefully on April 29, 2025, in Toledo, Ohio. A loving and supportive matriarch, she was a proud immigrant who made her way from Scotland to Canada before settling in the United States, creating a beautiful life for her family along the way.

Nancy's warmth and caring nature shone brightly through her many passions. She was known for her remarkable green thumb, nurtured a love for cultivating plants, and showcased her gardening talents throughout her life. An enthusiastic golfer and bowler, Nancy spent many joyous days on the course and at the bowling alley. She had an affinity for Sci-Fi and horror movies, often sharing her favorite films with family and friends, embodying a spirit that embraced both adventure and creativity.

In her personal life, Nancy was a perfectionist—always striving for excellence, yet compassionate and critical in the most heartfelt manner. She reveled in traveling the world alongside her husband, Ian Martin, who sadly passed away in January of last year. Together, they built a loving home, where Nancy served as the perfect homemaker and the biggest supporter of her family.

Nancy is survived by her children, Ian Martin, her son, Laurie Edgington, her daughter and husband Kevin; her grandchildren, Kyle Russell and wife Michelle, Alexander Russell and wife Sarina, and Andrew Russell; and her seven great-grandchildren, Craig, Cameron, Rowan, Declan, Kieran, Emma, and Grace. Each family member cherished her steadfast love and encouragement, which created lasting memories and bonds that crisscross the generations.

She leaves behind a legacy of kindness and strength, having been the last of her generation. Nancy Martin will be dearly missed by all who knew her, and her family is grateful for the impact she made in their lives.
