Martha Blue Passes Away

    Martha Lee Blue, 83, a 43-year resident of Davidsonville and previously of Kettering, MD, passed away on August 25, 2021.
    Born on December 28, 1937 in Richmond, VA to the late Jesse and Virginia Ferrell, Martha was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She also worked for 28 years as a secretary in the Prince George's County State's Attorney's Office.
