Martha Tinsley Arbs was born on June 22, 1930 in Spencer, Nebraska and went to be with her Lord on July 22, 2015. She was proud to devote her life to the honorable jobs of wife and mother. She was a loving, giving person who was very involved with her church and helping others in need. She touched many lives, some in big ways and some in small ways, and she lived her life with love and kindness to all, especially toward children. Mrs. Arbs is survived by her daughters Debbie Rickards and her husband Dan, Robin Gober and her husband Roger, and Laurie Lindsey. In addition, she leaves three granddaughters, three grandsons, and nine great-grandchildren. Mrs. Arbs will be buried next to her husband, Robert J. Arbs, in a private ceremony in Newton, Iowa. In lieu of flowers, please donate to a children's charity or to the Alzheimer's Association. She will be forever loved and missed, but her family is glad that the daily indignities of dementia are now behind her.
