Martha Nell Banks was born March 27, 1937 in Waxahachie, TX. She joined her heavenly family on May 8, 2023.
She is survived by a daughter, Jinna Russell, of Hudson, CO and her son, Trey Knox of Waxahachie. She was “Nanoo” to 3 grandchildren, Kelly, Layne and Micah, and 6 great grandchildren, all of the Denver area.
Martha was predeceased by her husband Tom Knox, her parents Virginia and Bully Banks, and her brother, Buddy Banks. Her sister-in-law, Jan Banks, and her family, survive her.
Martha was a young and vibrant mother and grandmother who was always involved in her children's and grandchildren's activities, her community, and many service groups. Her energy and involvement in her family's life were generous and the energy she gave to her community was notable. Many know her as a member of the First United Methodist Church of Waxahachie and the Builders Class. She also enjoyed her association with the Heirloom Club, the Downtown Merchants Association and the Garden Club in Dallas.
She had many wonderful friends who helped her the last few years and we are so grateful. She will be truly missed.
Memorial Service for Martha will be held Wednesday, May 24, 2023 at 11:30 in the Boze Mitchell McKibbin Chapel in Waxahachie, Texas.
