Martha began working at the “Powell House” in Dillard during the summers while she was in high school at Rabun Gap Nacoochee School. After graduating, she moved to Atlanta and began working at AT&T. In 1950 she married the love of her life Julian Wylie Neville. When Julian was called to duty by the Air Force, Martha moved back to Rabun Gap and worked as a receptionist for Doctor Boyd. While Julian was stationed in Puerto Rico, Martha went to be with him and made a cozy bungalow out of their hut near the base. When they returned to Atlanta, they began their family.
Retirement brought Martha and Julian back home to Rabun Gap where they have lived and loved being home on family land. During that time, they were able to enjoy traveling together for over thirty years.
In addition to being under the care of her loving husband, daughter and faithful caregivers, Martha has been under Hospice care. She has fought the good fight and now enjoying the benefits of a life well lived in her heavenly home.
