Marty Conley

Martha “Marty” Wilson Conley, age 72, passed away Thursday, June 23, 2022, at her home in rural Colony. 

Marty was born Jan. 13, 1950, in Gas, to George William and Mandana “Dannie” Jane (Gregg) Wilson. She was one of 13 children. She attended school in Gas. Marty dedicated her life to serving others and worked as a C.M.A. and C.N.A. throughout her career for local nursing homes. She married Harry Clay Conley in 1967. 

Marty had a passion for music. For years, she joined her sisters as they would go to local nursing homes and sing to residents. She would take her children and grandchildren with her and created many memories over the years with her loved ones by her side. Marty was known for being fun, hosting parties, and being the “school grandma.” Marty’s door was always open and she was ready to listen to anyone without judgment, making everyone who met her feel as if they were family. She was very patient and open minded. She was loved by everyone who met her and will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
