Martha Ann Keiner

Martha Ann Keiner, age 87, passed away peacefully in Albuquerque on June 27, 2025. Born on October 7, 1937, in Roby Texas, she was the beloved daughter of Granville and Forest Price.

A proud graduate of Roby High School, Martha remained connected to her hometown roots throughout her life and was a lifelong member of The Church of Christ. She married the love of her life, Cliff Keiner, on October 5, 1956, and they built a life rooted in love and family. Together they raised two children Clifann and Bobby, who brought immense joy and pride to their lives.

Martha found happiness in life’s simple pleasures. She enjoyed watching sports and was a devoted fan of Dallas Cowboys football -win or lose. Her love for country music filled her home with melodies that matched her soul – warm, heartfelt, and full of stories. Known especially for her talents in the kitchen, Martha’s homemade holiday treats were legendary. They were baked with love and shared generously with friends and family.

Martha dedicated much of her professional life to serving others through her work with the New Mexico Human Services Department, from which she later retired. Her commitment to helping others reflected the values she held dear – compassion, integrity, and service.

Martha’s greatest joy was her family. She cherished her role as Mom and Granny and poured boundless love into every generation. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren held a very special place in her heart, and she leaves behind a legacy of love that will live on through them.

She is survived by her children, Clifann McCarley and husband Steve of East Tawakoni, Texas and Bobby and wife Jolynn of Las Vegas, New Mexico, her three grandchildren, Nicole Gordon and husband Eric of Allen, Texas, Jennifer Keiner and husband Evan Mulch of Spartanburg, South Carolina and Kevin Keiner of Albuquerque and her four great grandchildren Nathan Gordon, Ayden and Gabriella Mulch, and Bear Keiner, her brother George and wife Jan Price of Waxahachie Texas, sister-in-law Frances Keiner of Abilene, Texas, sister in law Darlene Muesse of Scottsville, Texas as well as nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her husband, parents, Brother Jimmy and sister-in-law Jeanette Price and brother-in-law Glenn Keiner.

Martha will be remembered for her warm heart, generous spirit, unwavering dedication to family and friends and the grace with which she lived her life.

A visitation will be held at Rogers Mortuary Chapel on Wednesday, July 2, 2025 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm.

Graveside burial will be held in her childhood hometown of Roby, Texas.
