It is with profound sadness and broken hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Sandy Tsai Martin, 52 years

old, of Ashburn, VA. Sandy passed away at her home on June 20, 2026, surrounded by her family, after a courageous

year-long battle with cancer.

Born on February 22, 1974 in Taipei, Taiwan, she was the cherished daughter of Young Lung Tsai and Anne Tsai. She

grew up in Bethesda, MD where she graduated from Walt Whitman High School.

Sandy was beautiful, inside and out, bringing an undeniable light and warmth to everyone who was lucky enough to

know her. Sandy’s greatest joy was her family, and her devotion as a wife, mother, sister, daughter and friend was

unmatched. She had a passion for cooking, traveling, and entertaining. Her laughter filled our home, and her strength

guided us through every chapter of our lives. Whether she was striking up a conversation with a new friend, or simply

offering a listening ear, Sandy had a remarkable gift for making people feel seen, valued, and loved. While she may no

longer be here to tell her stories, the beautiful legacy of love she created will live on in our hearts forever.

She is survived by her loving husband, Dan Martin; her adoring children, Kirkland, Everett, Logan, and Landon; her

parents, Young Lung Tsai of Taipei, Taiwan and Anne Tsai of Leesburg, VA; and her sister, Jennifer Tsai Anderson and

husband Phil Anderson She is also survived by her father in-law; brother and sister in-laws; nieces and nephews; great

nieces and nephews; and many aunts & uncles.
