Born September 21, 1934, she fell asleep in Jesus' arms August 22, 2003. 
She was born in Signal Hill, California to James Henry Miller and Martha 
Anderson Miller. She spent her childhood in Banning, California, graduated 
from Long Beach City College with an A.A. degree in Business and Secretarial 
training in Palm Springs, California. She also learned to play steel guitar 
at the California Musical Institute in Banning where she and her sister 
Beverly Miller performed many musical presentations. Martha was also a wonderful 
artist, an enchanting piano player, and was actively involved in her church 
all her life.
On June 26, 1965, she married Bernard Joseph O'Hara. They had 3 lovely children, 
William, Kathleen and Eileen. For the last 3 1/2 years of her life, she lived in 
California City where she enjoyed the wide open spaces of the desert. She found 
pleasure in spending time with her friends and in reading the bible. She was 
known for her optimism and her gentle loving attitude toward others.
Martha is survived by her husband Bernard O'Hara, her children, William Edward, 
Kathleen Elizabeth, and Eileen Ann, her brother Howard Miller and her sister 
Beverly Kindelt. We were truly blessed to have known Martha O'Hara and we look 
forward to seeing her when Jesus returns. Martha died in expectation of the 
resurrection.
There will be a memorial service for her at the Mojave Seventh Day Adventist Church 
on 3020 Pat Avenue, Mojave, California, on August 30, 2003 at 1:30 p.m.
