Martha Nell Andrews

Martha Nell Andrews, age 71, of Dothan, Alabama, passed away on June 9, 2026, at Flowers Hospital.

Born on March 7, 1955, Martha lived a life marked by love, quiet strength, and unwavering devotion to her family. She was a loving and selfless woman whose greatest joy came from caring for those around her. Family always came before anything else in her life, and she was known by those who loved her as a true super mom. Her gentle spirit, easygoing nature, and generous heart touched everyone who had the blessing of knowing her.

Martha was preceded in death by her parents, Ronald Harvey Keisling and Nellie Cosby Keisling. She is survived by her husband of 47 years, Larry Andrews; her daughter, Susan Andrews; her son, Derek Andrews; her grandson, Jeremy Andrews; her brother, Stuart Keisling; her nephew, Adam Keisling; her uncle, Jerry Cosby and his wife Rena; and her aunt, Mary Holloway. Her family was the center of her world, and she found happiness in their happiness. If her children were happy, she was happy, and she gave of herself freely and without hesitation.

Martha was a caregiver in every sense of the word. She had a heart that was always ready to help, and she was the kind of person who would give you her last dollar or the shoes off her feet if you needed them. She was quiet, loving, and deeply selfless, and her kindness left a lasting impression on all who knew her. She loved animals and enjoyed planting flowers, finding joy in the simple and beautiful things of life. She especially appreciated receiving petunias and African violets for Mother’s Day, which reflected her love of nature and the thoughtfulness of her family.

A devoted Alabama football fan, Martha proudly cheered, “Roll Tide,” and enjoyed the traditions and excitement that came with supporting her team. More than anything, though, she cherished the comfort of home, the warmth of family, and the blessing of time spent with those she loved. Her life was a reflection of compassion, humility, and steadfast devotion, and she will be remembered for the love she gave so freely.

A graveside service for Martha Nell Andrews will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, June 12, 2026, at Memory Hill Cemetery, with Ward Wilson Funeral Home directing.
