Family was the foremost important thing in her life. Her love and passion for life was an inspiration for all, whether it was spending time with her family and friends or enjoying her much loved mariachi music. Married in Jerome, AZ, Sadie was a military wife for 25 years. One of the many joys of being a navy wife was the opportunity to travel and meet new friends.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to the many friends and family who provided love and support during this very difficult period.
