Obituary: Martha Henrietta (Geringer) Bitter, age 95, passed away peacefully, departing this world for heaven on , 2, 2016 at Twilight Haven in Fresno, Ca. Martha was born 20, 1920 in Ordway, Colorado to the late Gottlieb and Emilie (Broeckel) Geringer. She married the love of her life, Henry Bitter in 1944 and they had a blessed union of 57 years prior to his death in 2001.

Martha adored her husband, her children and their spouses, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. It brought her great joy to prepare her German style dinners for family get-togethers. The memories and recipes from her German heritage will be remembered fondly and shared with many generations. Among some of the familys favorites were her varenik, beerocks, homemade german sausage, kuchen, yeast breads and home canned pickles and olives.

Martha was a devoted mother to her children, especially to her youngest child, Vernon, who became disabled due to an illness at age 3. She, along with her husband Henry, lovingly cared for him until his death in 1981. Henry and Martha never viewed Vernons disability as a burden but a willing obligation of love to honor God and provide the best care possible for their child well into his adulthood.

In addition to her family involvement, Martha had a passion for serving her community. She was actively involved in the following organizations throughout her earlier years; Madera Heartland Opportunity , North Fork Putney Ranch Camp, Madera and Fresno Farm Bureau Women, Life Member of Fresno Twilight Haven Guild, Madera Chamber of Commerce, Madera Gideons International, Germans From Russia Historical Society of Central California, Madera Historical Society, Madera Gardeners, and Madera 4-H as a Leader.

Martha was a strong believer in Jesus Christ (John 3:16). She was a loyal and regular church attendee for many years at Biola Congregational Church and Madera Avenue Mennonite Brethren Church.

She was preceded in death by her loving husband, Henry J. Bitter of Madera, her son, Vernon Dean Bitter, her parents Gottlieb and Emilie Geringer, her sister Marie Engel, her brothers Daniel and John Geringer.

Martha is survived by her three loving children: Dale, wife Ronae Bitter of Ponte Vedra, FLA, Robert, Wife Connie Bitter of Madera, CA, and Marjorie, husband Steve Kuester of Bainbridge Island, WA, her brother Benjamin, wife Delores Geringer of Lodi, CA, 9 Grandchildren , 9 Great-Grandchildren, and several loving relatives and friends.

The family of Martha Bitter would like to sincerely thank the kind-hearted staff at Twilight Haven for their wonderful care, commitment, and support they have shown towards their beloved mother and family throughout her residence of 15 years. Because of your loving, daily care, our loved one was allowed to live out her final stages of life happily and content with her surroundings. That truly meant so very much to our family and will always be remembered fondly.

Visitation will be held from 3:00-7:00 p.m. on , 7th at Lisle .

Graveside services for Marthas homegoing will be at 11:00 a.m. on , 8, 2016 at Fresno Memorial Gardens under the direction of Lisle .

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be sent to Biola Congregational Church, 4717 N 5th St, Fresno, CA 93726 or Twilight Haven, 1717 South Winery Ave. Fresno, CA 93727
