Martha was born July 28, 1929 in New Hradec, ND. She's the daughter of the late John and Mary (Volesky) Holler. Martha grew up on her family's farm. At the age of 16, following the death of her mother, Martha assisted her father with the farm and the upbringing of her three younger siblings; Margaret, Roger, and Rita.
Martha's dream was to become a nun, but a different path led her to the love of her life. In 1951, Martha met Phillip C. Haag, of Dickinson, ND at a wedding dance. They later married on July 2, 1951 in New Hradec, and shortly after they moved to Norfolk, VA where Phil served in the Navy. After Phil's service they moved to Dickinson, ND for a brief period before settling in Lemmon, SD where they raised their four children. Phil's truck stop and Martha's café were operated for over 30 years and Martha's remarkable pies were legendary nation-wide.
In 1992 Phil and Martha retired in Spearfish where their remaining days were spent with family and friends.
Martha is preceded in death by her parents, and her husband Phil. She is survived by her four children, Jackie (Les) Wolff, Lemmon, SD, Gene (Kate) Haag, Elbert, CO, Rodney (Janice) Haag, Blunt SD, Cindy (Chris) Adams, Fort Collins, CO, nine grandchildren, Brandon Haag, Fort Pierre, SD, Eric (Traci) Wolff, Billings, MT, Riley Haag Dallas, TX, Becky Haag, Elbert, CO, Jessica (Tyler) Hess, Hanscom AFB, MA, Erin Wolff, Spearfish, SD, Ali (Brent) Baloun, Sioux Falls, SD, Jacob Adams, Fort Collins, CO, Holly Adams, Fort Collins, CO , and three great-grandchildren Tyler and Trenton Hess and Lila Wolff.
