Friend of Route 66 and Board Member, Martha Jackson, Has Passed Away

June 30, 2019 By Editor Gina

I am sad to report that Martha Jackson has passed away. Martha served on our board for a few years, was a great friend of Route 66 and fought for the 66 alignment which included Litchfield to be recognized as much as the Route 4 alignment.

She was a dynamic woman who was strong willed, determined but kind.

I will miss her greatly. I got to see her on the Motor Tour in Gillespie.
