Marti lived her life wholeheartedly and faithfully serving God, church, friends, and family. She loved everyone, and everyone who was fortunate enough to know her loved her. Her children’s friends considered her a second mama. Marti’s smile was beautiful and
contagious, and she smiled a lot.

Marti was in the first class to graduate from Eastside High School. She earned a BA degree in nursing from Clemson University and began her nursing career at Grenville General Hospital. She continued nursing at Greenville Memorial Hospital and at private
practice doctors’ offices before retiring from nursing to teach at St. Giles Presbyterian Preschool. “Miss Marti” loved all the children there, and was loved by the children and their parents. Her generous heart was always shining through her work.

Marti married Joe Cash, Jr., in 1980. Marti and Joe have two children, Lauren and Joe III, of whom they’re both very proud. Lauren is married to Nate Cox, and they have two daughters; Lachlyn Alexandra Cox and Margaret Mason “Macie” Cox. Joe III is married to
Jocelyn Mak Cash, and they have one son, Thornton Bedford “Thor” Cash. Marti’s precious children and grandchildren, who knew her as “Gaga,” were the joy of her life.

She remained close to lifelong friends Sandy and Bill Cary and Marsha Johnson. Marti also had a close-knit group of friends from church and a great gang of friends with whom she and Joe celebrated birthdays and any occasion to get together.

Marti was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and went to be with our Lord barely more than a month later on August 6, 2022. She will be deeply and profoundly missed by everyone. She left this world a much better place because of her presence.

In lieu of flowers, Marti requested donations be made to St. Giles Presbyterian Preschool and Triune Mercy Center.

Funeral services will be held Wednesday, August 10, 2022, 4:30 p.m., at Triune Mercy Center, 222 Rutherford St., Greenville, SC 29609. Visitation will be held at Triune from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m.

I was one of the fortunate who was able to be friends with and work with Marti. She was a truly good person and made a lasting impression on my life. Blessings to the entire family . !

We first met Martie when our sons were in middle school together. The guys loved hanging at her house because she was so kind and welcoming. Thru the years when we would see her we loved talking to her and reminiscing and catching up about our families. She was a wonderful person and will be missed by many. God Bless her family. Mike & Sandy Callahan

We send our prayers to the family in this time of need. Marti has taken her place in heaven.

I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of Ms. Marti. My daughter, Abby, had her her last year at St. Giles in 2017. She was very sweet and we loved her. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

We have many years of memories that I will cherish! Love you Cash family.

Joe and family, we are so sorry to learn of Marti's passing. We will always remember her gentle spirit and sweet smile. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Beautiful person, beautiful legacy...her light will continue to shine through all of those lucky enough to have known her ♡

Our hearts are just broken for all of you. Marti was the sweetest person with an infectious smile. So so kind. My sister passed away 5 years ago and their story is almost identical! Please know that we will be praying for peace and comfort for all of you in the coming days.,, Love to you all…Buck and Sheilah Baker

It comes as no surprise that anyone who was fortunate enough to have been a part of Marti's life was truly blessed. To say that Marti was truly the nicest person I have ever known seems understated. Her ever-present smile was contagious. Her bright light will be sorely missed.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
