Sandra Martin (13 Nov 1945 - 1 Aug 2015)

I never knew what I wanted to write which is partly why this has taken so long and also I didn't know how best to put into words my sorrow at Sandra's early passing. My condolences to her gorgeous family, of which when I was growing up, I always felt part of and welcomed into. It was home away from home and certainly a much happier home than my own and Sandra was central to that and the most amazing influence to me with the warmest heart. Anyway, songs always remind me of a time and a place and the song that I have always associated with Sandra is 'Heartbreaker' by Dionne Warwick, but not in a sad way, in a celebratory way. So I dedicate that song to you. I wish you safe travels Sandra, thank you for being a part of my life. Your legacy lives on in your crazy, fun and loving family, you will never be forgotten. Much love always, Stephanie xx

Our Sincere Condolences Keith & Family.

Sandra we'll miss your warm smile and affectionate laughter. .Love from Graham and Barbara

travel well x

Sandra The Angels saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be, so they put their arms around you and whispered "Come to Me".

A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands now rest, the Angels broke so many hearts, to prove to us they only take the best.

Thank you for always making me welcome, whenever Margaret brought me to see you, whenever I was down on a visit. Will always remember the laughs we three shared.
I'm sure you are sorting out the social calendar up above, and are busy arranging the next shindig.
Will raise a glass or three to you.
Lots of Love

A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest, the Angels broke so many hearts, to prove to us they only take the best.

So glad to have known you, thank you for always making me welcome whenever Margaret brought me
to see you, when I was down visiting her.
Will always raise a glass or three to you with happy memories.
I'm sure you will already be sorting out the social calendar and arranging the next shindig up above.
Lots of love.

She was gutsy, gorgeous and a glorious example of a human being who was loving, kind, thoughtful and appreciative. Most of all I will remember the laughs, the fun and the sheer bubbly warmth of her personality. Along with the the Martini Bianco’s that morphed into G and T’s! Her legacy to Team Martin is that of love, warmth and laughter that will sustain them ‘all the days of their lives’.
“May flights of a angels hymn her to her rest” – and then have a bloody good party.

I will never forget our first meeting in the hot tub! It was a pleasure to have known you Sandra. Sleep tight xxx

Sandra was an amazing lady who will not be forgotten. Thinking of you all at this time. Charles, Angela and family. XXX

A brilliant lady, brightened up our lives with her bubbly personality. Charity and I fondly remember that holiday in Turkey with you and Keith looking after us so well.

The first time I met you Sandra, I had a toddler and a 6 week old baby, you looked after me all day, filling the wine glass, making lunch and making me feel so welcome. Sophie slept all night for the first time, I wonder why? Lisa xx

Every Christmas won’t be the same, Nick will miss you and his Walnuts & Satsuma bags xx

We just want u to know that you are an amazing lady and nothing will ever change that. RIP Sophie & Lucy xx
