Sarah was a God-Mother and a "Titi" to many nieces and nephews and great-nieces and great-nephews, some of whom she'd taken under her wing at different times to help them through their struggles.

Sarah's vibrant personality had a spark that lit up any room. Her spunk and pizzazz spoke louder then words. Sarah was generous with her time for those she loved, she was caring and so so loyal and you definitely knew where you stood with her. Sarah always showed up and was present!

Throughout her career, Sarah had several jobs that she loved, one inparticular was working as a security dispatcher in Franklin Park IL.

Sarah had many hobbies and enjoyed crafts; ceramics, pottery, jewelry making, painting, singing, etc...

Sarah will be famously remembered for her upbeat personality, showing up with glow-sticks and nail polish kits with bling bling jewelry to do everyone's nails, bedazzled hats, cowboy hats, and words like, "Howdy", "Hi Fea" and "Fat Girl Happy"!

Sarah is predeceased by her father, Juan Martinez.
