Martha Stokes Robertson Gehlhoff, 82, Allen, TX

Martha was born April 27, 1937 and passed away on October 21, 2019 with her

devoted husband by her side at Belterra nursing home in McKinney, TX. Martha was

born to Matthew Robertson, Sr. and Nelle Robertson in Farmville, VA. Martha

attended Randolph Henry High School and was homecoming queen in her sophomore

and senior year. Martha met her husband, Greg, in Pueblo, CO and they were married

at Unity Village in Lee's Summit on March 11, 1985. After her husband completed

graduate school, they moved to Manhattan, KS and opened Manhattan Chiropractic.

Martha was instrumental in decorating the office and then filled the position as office

manager. She went on to establish VicMar Ventures where she continued along her

father’s footsteps (equine instead of bovine) by breeding, raising, training and showing

her beloved cutting horses, several of which went to the Cutting Horse Futurity in Fort

Worth, Texas. She will be remembered for her unconditional love of her family, her

horses and her many friends. Graveside services will be held on Sunday, November 3,

2019 at 11:00 a.m. at Westview Cemetery in Farmville, VA. She is survived by her

husband of 35 years, Dr. Gregory Gehlhoff, her brother Matthew Robertson, Jr., his

spouse Rosalie, her daughter, Victoria LaBrada and her husband, Gabriel LaBrada,

granddaughter, Michelle and two great grandchildren, Madden and Gabrielle, along

with many other family members. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you donate, in
