It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we mourn the loss of Martha Dismont, a true champion of social change and an unwavering source of inspiration for Bermuda. On behalf of the One Bermuda Alliance, I extend our deepest condolences to Martha’s family, friends, and the entire community, as we come to terms with this profound loss.

Martha Dismont was not just an exceptional social worker and counselor; she was a beacon of hope and a catalyst for positive transformation in our society. Through her remarkable dedication and the establishment of one of Bermuda’s leading helping agencies, she touched the lives of countless individuals by serving selflessly and tirelessly. She has left an enduring legacy of compassion and empowerment. Her unwavering optimism and relentless pursuit of solutions to Bermuda’s grassroots social problems were truly awe-inspiring. She firmly believed in the power of collaboration and community engagement, always striving to find innovative approaches to address the challenges faced by our most vulnerable citizens. Her unwavering commitment to fostering a more equitable society will forever be remembered.

Martha understood the deep-rooted struggles faced by those seeking her support and was unwavering in her determination to help them overcome adversity. Her legacy as an advocate for the most vulnerable members of our society will continue to inspire future generations. However, we must remember her not with sorrow, but with gratitude for the profound impact she had on our lives. Her selfless dedication, visionary leadership, and boundless empathy will continue to guide us as we strive to build a more just and compassionate society.

We must honor the memory of Martha Dismont by continuing the work she started, by striving for a society where everyone has equal opportunities and access to the support they need. May her passion, dedication, and eternal optimism continue to inspire us as we work towards a brighter future for Bermuda.
