  • Notes 
    • Martin, Ina (Snyder)

      September 23, 1925 - June 9, 2024

      Peacefully passed away on Sunday, June 9, 2024 at Barnswallow Place, Elmira at the age of 98 years.

      Beloved wife of the late Eldon H. Martin (2009). With many memories, Mom and Grandma Ina will be forever lovingly remembered by her daughter Karen and Gene Zdebiak; grandchildren Zach Zdebiak, Monica (Chris) Martin, Marsha (Brandon) Merritt, Logan Zdebiak, Jenna Zdebiak; great-grandchildren Chase (Naomi) Zdebiak, Jazlyn, Carson and Cash Martin, Riley Zdebiak and Ayden Merritt; and great-great-grandsons Trevor Zdebiak, and Benjamin Zdebiak. She is fondly remembered by her brother Paul (Martha) Snyder, brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law Ron (Jill) Martin, Ruby Martin, Angus Martin, and Lorne Martin. Many nieces, nephews and their families will miss Aunt Ina!

      Predeceased by her parents Elo and Susannah (Martin) Snyder, son Gerald Martin (2022), granddaughter Gypsy Sulz-Zdebiak (2010), grandson-in-law Trevor Sulz (2007), brothers Amos (Naomi) Snyder, Floyd (Sylvia) Snyder, sisters Edith (Harry) Pekarek, Salome (Leslie) Harrison, brother-in-law Albert Martin, sisters-in-law Florence Martin and Melba Martin.

      Ina was employed for many years in various Mennonite Church organizations before she married and moved to the farm north of Elmira with her husband Eldon, where they worked hard and enjoyed life. They traveled a lot and saw many places and visited family often in Alberta and BC. Ina would say with a smile, "Life is good, my blessings have been abundant, and always, I love you. Bye for now."

      Cremation has taken place. A graveside service will be held at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, June 18, 2024 in Elmira Mennonite Cemetery, 58 Church St. W., Elmira. A memorial service will follow at 11 a.m. at Elmira Mennonite Church with a reception and sharing of memories to follow. The service will be livestreamed and will be available on Ina's tribute page of the funeral home website.



      As expressions of sympathy, donations to Elmira Mennonite Church or MCC would be appreciated and may be made through the Dreisinger Funeral Home. A special thank you to all the staff and doctors at Chartwell Assisted Living and Barnswallow Place for their kind and compassionate care.
