Individual Notes
• Inconspicuously in one of the rear stalls of the Safeway parking lot may now (while streets are being paved) be seen a large, new, shiny, Hudson sedan, if we dare mention the make. This has been proven beyond the shadow of a doubt to be the recently purchased property of Past President Hoyt. F. Martin.55
• Hoyt died while we were touring in Israel. We learned of his death upon telephoning home from Paris just prior to departure to the states. Gretchen had a premonition that this might happen; Flossie decided not to spoil our trip and saved the news until the last moment.
• Hoyt F. Martin services held
Private funeral services have been held for Hoyt Fellows Martin, a former long-time South Pasadena resident and practicing physician.

Individual Notes
• undated inscription in Bible:67
To Florence Elizabeth Hawkins on her trip east with the sincere wish that she will derive as much pleasure from this Book as I have. /s/ Hoyt Martin
• Honors inuring to members of the families of Kiwanians must receive their proper recognition. A recent issue of the Pasadena Star-News features a delightful half column with cut on the noteworthy accomplishments of Mrs. Hoyt F. Martin. Mrs. Martin is a Gamma Phi Beta, a native of Evanston, Ill., a graduate of UCLA, interested in reading German and Scandinavian works, is mother of two delightful small daughters, she swims, designs and sews; before her marriage to our Hoyt, was a physical therapy technician by profession. The article emphasizes that her particular line of accomplishments fittingly portray the ideals of Gamma Phi Beta. What Ho Hoyt? Charity fund?55
• [excerpts] The fact that she named her elder daughter for Sigrid Undset’s medieval heroine, Kristin Lavransdatter, is proof that Mrs. Hoyt Martin, president of the Pasadena alumnae of Gamma Phi Beta, counts reading as one of her more absorbing pastimes. Of Swedish and German descent, she is particularly interested in literature relating to the Scandinavian pioneers in the Middlewest.68
• [excerpts] Few women in the nation can equal the record of Mrs. Hoyt (Florence) Martin, who is 1957 president of the eight district San Gabriel Valley Council of Camp Fire Girls Inc..
Mrs. Martin’s span of participation ranges over 40 years.68
• [excerpts] 1988 has been my best year, in that my health and strength seem to have returned to normal. My family and friends have enriched my life, while my interest in the needy has made me aware of the reason for living and giving.
In this mixed up world, what could be more important than family, friends, and the love of God.69
• Suffered stroke on Wednesday, August 28, 1996, the day that Margaret and Andy arrived from Kenya. Non-responsive as of Saturday morning, August 31.
On Labor Day, September 3, 1996, she was transported by Gretchen and Margaret via car from Pasadena to Desert Forum rest home, Peoria, Arizona.
Dave, Gretchen, Margaret, and Andy visited her on Sunday, September 8. She can respond to questions through facial expressions.
Gretchen and Dave visited her on Saturday, September 14. She recognized both of us and took a little food by mouth. She seemed to be in some pain. Kris and John visited her on Sunday.The doctor gave her morphine and she died on Monday. Dave was in Rochester, New York on business at the time.
• Immediate Cause of Death: Malaise and total system failure, due to or as a consequence of Coronary Artery Disease and congestive failure.65
• OBITUARY
Florence Hawkins Martin, who lived full time at Lake Arrowhead from 1975 to 1985, died Sept. 16 in Arizona at the age of 88.
Born Dec. 28, 1907 in Evanston, Ill., she moved with her family to Pasadena, Calif. She graduated from Pasadena High School in 1924 and attended University of California, Los Angeles. In 1929 she married Hoyt Fellows Martin, a native of Pasadena.
Florence and Hoyt, along with friends and relatives, frequently camped on the shore of Lake Arrowhead near Orchard Bay in the 1920s. After spending many summers at Lake Arrowhead at the Martin's house on Palisades Drive, they became full-time residents after retirement. Florence was active in Lake Arrowhead Community Presbyterian Church.
She lived since 1985 in Pasadena, where she taught a Bible study class before suffering a stroke in August.
She is survived by two daughters, Kris Schuehle of Flagstaff, Ariz., and Gretchen Mills of Carefree, Ariz; five grandchildren: Neil Schuehle, Jennifer Stradling, Samantha Schuehle, Margaret Andersen and Nelson Mills, and three great-grandchildren.70
• Florence Hawkins Martin
She smiled as she crossed the border from California into Arizona. At last Florence had come to reside in the state where her two daughters had moved. She enjoyed living close to Kris and Gretchen, but leaving the familiar surroundings had not appealed to her at age 88 until a serious stroke necessitated the move. The beautiful surroundings and excellent care were not long to be enjoyed, however, as Florence Martin went home to be with the Lord on September 16, 1996.
Florence Hawkins Martin, born December 28, 1907 in Evanston, IL, moved with her family to Pasadena. She graduated from Pasadena High School in 1924 and attended UCLA. In 1929 she married Hoyt Fellows Martin, a native of Pasadena, who lived across the street from the Hawkins family on Rose Villa Street.
Her work in the physical therapy department at the Huntington Hospital preceded her 25 years of service with Camp Fire Girls, from which she retired as Executive Director in 1975. Florence was also active with Gamma Phi Beta sorority, affiliated with Alpha Iota chapter at UCLA, serving as advisor to Beta Alpha chapter at USC and a Convention Chairman and International Vice President.
After ten years’ residence at Lake Arrowhead where she was active in the Presbyterian church, she returned to Pasadena just fifteen minutes away from her daughters. Since 1985 she has resided at Sierra Bonita Towers, a retirement apartment where she taught a Bible study class before suffering a stroke in August this year.
She is warmly remembered by her two daughters, Kris Schuehle of Flagstaff, AZ and Gretchen Mills, of Carefree, AZ; five grandchildren, Neil Schuehle, Jennifer Stradling, Samantha Schuehle, Margaret Andersen, and Nelson Mills; and three great grandchildren, Daniel, Katherine and Kimberly Stradling.71

Biography
• Attended elementary school in Park Ridge, Ill. Joined the Blue Birds. 1 year High School, Maine Township High School, Des Plaines, Ill.
Moved to Pasadena 1923 where she met the boy across the street who became her husband in 1929. Completed Pasadena High, 1925.
Attended UCLA. Graduated from Southern Calif. School of Physical Therapy and worked as a Physical Therapist at Huntington Memorial Hospital until 1940, when Kristin was born. Prior to Kris’ birth, Hoyt & Floss built a house high atop a hill in So. Pasadena. Gretchen born 1942.
Became a devoted wife, mother, housekeeper, gardener, seamstress, etc. for about 7 years, when she became interested in her national sorority, Gamma Phi Beta, which she had joined at UCLA.
Also a renewed interest in Camp Fire Girls crept in when Kris became a Blue Bird. While the girls were growing up, time was divided among various interests, but Gamma Phi and Camp Fire seemed to capture most of the interest.
International Vice President of Gamma Phi for 2 years and six years membership in CF [Bdy?] Dir. with President of Council; National Council member - among contributions.
In Aug of 1958 accepted position of District Director for San Gabriel Valley Council of CFG and went to Peaceful Valley, Colorado for a three week training course. 1 yr. later offered position of E. D. [Executive Director] and have held position ever since.
Soon we were evicted from our headquarters in the city Park. We were housed in an unsatisfactory old house when we found our present site.
1962 - both girls married - one in April, one in December. Then Hoyt & I flew to Tahiti. Trips include Mexico, Yucatan, Cozamel, several trips to Hawaii; several trips to New York, New England, and a month long tour of the Orient and South Pacific including Australia, New Zealand and a second visit to Tahiti.
Both girls were members of CF from Blue Birds through Horizon Club and both served as counselors at Wasie [Camp Wasewagon in the San Bernardino mountains].
The Martins have a house at Lake Arrowhead which has been enlarged to accommodate the extended family and spend as much time as possible enjoying the Lake and its surrounding beauty.74
• Christmas Letter, 1991
This year we haven’t had to wait for Christmas to bring joy to our hearts - Our hopes and aspirations started early when Jennifer announced she was carrying identical twin girls. You may remember that Daniel had been born in April 1990 and was still the family’s pride and joy and as handsome as his fathr, David Stradling, and as active as an Olympic hopeful. The birth of the twins came a bit early - September 29, giving great grandmother Florence one more reason to keep on living. Katherine and Kimberly are doing just fine and are, of course, adorable.
Kris and John Schuehle surprised us all by building a sumptuous new home in Forest Highlands, a gated golf course community 6 miles out of Flagstaff, Arizona. I have made my one and only visit because the altitude of 7,000’ doesn’t agree with my high blood pressure. Samantha is ready for college and Neil is doing well in the Marines.
Gretchen and David Mills have been trying to keep up with their children by doing a bit of traveling, including a trip to Tanzania, Africa to visit Margaret, and another trip to France to visit Nelson who is on a USC program in International Relations and has spent time in Paris and Washington D.C. Margaret is presently visiting in California but will return to Tanzania the first of the year to continue teaching children of missionaries.
I’m still driving my car but only on short runs around town. The Bible class I continue to teach as well as my sewing kepp me in touch with the needs of others, while my constant exercise and walking keep me in good health. I thank God for my precious growing family and for the constant companionship of friends. Life is slowing down for me but isn’t it about time? Do have a joyful and blessed Christmas.75
