Martha Virginia Conoly passed away on May 19, 2016.  She was born December 16, 1935 in Urbana, Arkansas to Flora Bertha and Goyne Talmage Hinson. She lost her mother at 11 years old, and with her father unable to care for her and her sister, she was raised in Texarkana by her Aunt Ester. Before her senior year in high school, she moved to Van Horn to live with her Aunt Margie, and she graduated from Van Horn High School in 1953. She then attended beauty school in El Paso and worked at a local coffee shop. It was at the coffee shop where she met her husband, John E. Conoly. They married in 1954. She lost her first son (John Michael) at 3 years old. Even through all her losses she remained a loving and strong person who always lived by the mantra “life is good”. She had a strong faith in God and believed in his will.

John & Martha started Conoly Realty in the mid 6o’s. She later opened the Conoly Office Center and did bookkeeping for many of the farms and businesses in town.
