Martha was born to John Boyd and Annie Laura Horton Gregory on March 3, 1933, in Winston County, Mississippi. She was a member of Harmony Baptist Church. Martha enjoyed gardening and ordering from the $1 menu at McDonald’s. Most of all, she dearly loved her family and enjoyed spending time with them.
Martha is survived by her son, Paul Russell Slawson (Bebia Ann) of Bossier City, Louisiana; and her sister, Betty Stevens of Sallis, Mississippi. One of her greatest joys was being with her four grandchildren: Russell Bryan Slawson, Carie Ann Bernard (Fred), Beckie Leigh McCormic (Todd Woodward), and Thomas Reed Slawson. She is also survived by six great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild. She was preceded in death by her husband, Randolph Slawson; son, Randy Slawson; grandson, James Randolph Slawson; and her parents.
