Martha Hege

We lost an angel May 10th, 2022. Martha Thomas Hege, 87, got her wings and soared to heaven to be with her family and savior. She was one of five children born to Susie Robertson Thomas and Clint Thomas, in Lewisville, N.C. She was preceded in death by her parents and following siblings Ann T. Walin (sister) Helen T. Spainhour (sister) "Pete" Thomas (brother). She is survived by her sister, Shirley McInnis; daughter, Tracye Higgins; partner, "Dee Moles" and wonderful nephews and nieces. Martha graduated from Lewisville High School, then attended Forsyth Technical Community College for nursing, which she truly loved. She spent 30 wonderful years at Forsyth Medical Center, newborn baby department and loved every minute of it. She was a loving mother, companion, friend, and was always smiling and laughing about some of the silliest things. Her imagination and sense of humor made her fun to be around, interesting as well. Her cats were her other children and she loved them so much. Every plant, animal, fish, bird she loved dearly because it had a life and deserved to be loved. Her lake house was her get away, she loved all the flowers we planted over the years and couldn't wait to see what was blooming on each trip. She was a true friend and if you were troubled, she tried to comfort you in any way she could. A true caretaker and loving spirit, she will be greatly missed by so many. A funeral service will be held 2:00 PM Monday, May 16, 2022, at Hayworth-Miller Silas Creek Chapel, with Rev. Kevin Kilbreth officiating. The family will receive friends one hour prior.  In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be sent to Wildlife Rehab Inc., P.O. Box 24552, Winston-Salem, NC 27114.
