Martha Conley Page

Martha Conley Page, 102, formerly of Etters, PA died Friday, June 6, 2025, at Spring Arbor

Assisted Living in Fredericksburg, VA. Martha was born to the late Joseph and Mary

Musser Conley of Etters, PA in 1922; her family-of-origin were Old Order River Brethren

"down the Valley Road."

She had four sisters: Susan Rehm, Minerva Fisher, MaryAnn McAllister, and Bertha Wentz,

all of whom predeceased her.

In 1941 Martha married Conrad Page, Jr. Their first daughter, Rosa Mary (Guyler), now of

Fredericksburg, VA, was born in 1943. Soon thereafter, while they were living in

Sacramento, CA, Conrad was deployed to Europe to serve in WWII. Martha then boarded a

train with Rosa in tow to return to her family in Etters to wait out the war.

A year after Conrad's return from the war, their second daughter, Gloria Faye (Wray), now

of Fredericksburg, VA, was born. Their family was complete when their son David Conrad

(of Winchester, MA) was born 10 years later.

Preceded in death by her husband Conrad, Martha is survived by her three children; Rosa

(Jim, now deceased) and their daughters, Christine Guyler and Laura (George) Palaima and

their 3 children; Gloria and her daughters, Lisa (Doug) Cline and their three daughters, and

Janelle (Jason) Basham and their son and daughter; and by David (Elizabeth) Page and their

daughters, Charlotte (Connor) Crane, Julia Page and Lucy Page. She is also survived by

numerous nieces and nephews.

Martha was a decades-long member of Fishing Creek Salem United Methodist Church in

Etters, where she served in numerous ministries including teaching Sunday School,

leading crafts at VBS, and Stephen Ministries.

She used her vast creative abilities for sewing, gardening, needlework of all kinds, cooking

and baking. She loved sharing the items she made as well as her abilities with young and

old.

Family and friends are invited to a Memorial Service to be held at 11 AM on Saturday,

June 14, 2025, at Fishing Creek Salem United Methodist Church in Etters. All attendees are

invited to stay afterwards for a luncheon in the church fellowship hall.
