MARTHA TILTON 1915-2006 TRIBUTE (Liltin' Miss Tilton)
- 15 years ago
Featuring Irene 1940.
In the 1930's she was billed as the “Sweetheart of Swing” (New York Times - 12/13/2006).
From Martha's Official website:
On November 14th, 1915, a daughter to Frederick and Francis Tilton of Corpus Christi, Texas. Their baby girl would be named Martha Ellen Tilton.
"...OUR ANGEL IS CALLED HOME
On December 8, 2006, the Lord looked down and brought one of His Angels home. I'd like to think He saw all these WWII veterans passing away and needed another singer for The Big U.S.O. Show in the Sky. He then gently put Martha to sleep so that she could join Him in this Grand Event...
...My deepest condolences go out to her family in this time of mourning. We trust in the words of Christ Jesus: "Believe in me and you shall not perish, but have everlasting life." With this promise, I hope to see this Angel Sing in the next life.
