She is also survived by a brother, John Edward Butler, Jr; ten grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and many other family members.
Besides her parents, Martha was preceded in death by her husband of 56 years, Charles E. Wheeler, Sr.; infant son, Joseph Wheeler and her sister, Eleanor (Walbright) Shaw.
The family would like to thank the caring and loving staff at Wickshire Senior Living, Poland Ohio.
In keeping with her wishes, there will be a celebration of her life at a later date.
