Priscilla Jeanne Martin

September 28, 1955 - January 17, 2021

Priscilla Jeanne Martin, 65, was surrounded by loved ones when she passed away on January 17th 2021 after a 3 year battle against breast cancer. Even in the face of this great adversity she never gave up hope, not even for a minute. The strength and tenacity Priscilla showed throughout her entire lifetime is truly admirable. She was born on September 28th 1955 in Lewiston, Maine to Beatrice Black and Roland Martin. She grew up with very little when her parents divorced and Priscilla and her sister were raised by their single mother. She graduated from Provo high school in 1973. After high school Priscilla did some traveling before becoming a licensed horticulturalist because of her deep love of plants and nature. She also loved traveling, animals, arts and crafts, tennis, croquet, yoga, needlework, hiking, cappuccinos and good company. She later became a licensed optician and worked at the Moran Eye Center in Salt Lake City for many years. Priscilla was creative, funny, loving, smart and kind and will be missed immensely. She is survived by her Aunt Betty, Uncle Lee, Uncle Harold, older sister Annettte, half brother Richard, daughter Arin and grandchildren Juniper and Caspian. Funeral services will be at the Serenity Funeral Home of Southern Utah on January 30th at 1 pm. In lieu of flowers, we ask you to please make a donation to the Cancer Research Institute.
