It was only until this afternoon that we saw the posts on Facebook with the sad news that Martha had passed away today.
It is such a shock. We just saw Martha and Manolo in Buenos Aires last May.
It feels like just yesterday when Martha and Manolo invited us to their house and Martha treated us with asado using her special secret recipe, and showed us a huge album filled with photos of all the cakes that she made for friends and loved ones in Tango.
It feels like just yesterday when we were at Sunderland together.
It feels like just yesterday when Martha and Manolo were in Toronto and we had the opportunity of a lifetime to learn from these great Maestros, who became like family to us.
Dear Martha: You are our mama of Tango, the Queen of Canyengue... we will never forget what you have taught us, what you have shared with us, and we will always cherish your friendship and your love. We love you and we miss you.

I have got to see the beauty of their tango through your blog, and mesmorised. She is with the angels now and rest in peace.
Thank you very much for your kind words. We miss Martha very very much.
Irene and Man Yung
