Sandra "Sandi" Kay Imhoff Martin, a beacon of warmth and kindness, passed away suddenly and peacefully at home on June 9, 2026, at the age of 72. Born to Reinhold and Emma (Kreis) Imhoff on March 7, 1954, in Sidney, Montana, Sandi's life was a tapestry woven with love, laughter, and resilience.

Sandi grew up in Sidney, where she graduated from Sidney Public School in 1972. After graduation, she returned to North Dakota, lived in Richardton, and worked at Woolworths in Dickinson until her marriage. On November 23, 1974, Sandi married the love of her life, Bruce Martin, in Hebron. After marriage, they moved to the family farm 17 miles north of Hebron to help. After the births of their two older daughters, they moved to Dickinson. In mid-February 1977, they moved to Glasgow, MT, where they both attended the Family Training Center School. After the death of their daughter Sherri, they returned to Hebron, ND, where she laid the foundation for a life filled with compassion and service. Together, they shared 51 beautiful years of marriage, raising five wonderful daughters and building a home filled with love and joy. Sandi's family was the center of her universe, and her greatest joy was found in the company of her loved ones. Her children, Jessica (Randy) Duppong of Glen Ullin, ND; Juanita (Jeff Volk, fiancé) Martin of Bismarck, ND; Coty (Anthony Ritch, fiancé) Nelson of New Mexico; Shaunda (Allen) Nadvornik of Dickinson, ND; and Crystal (Brandon) Bellerud of Bismarck, ND, were her pride and joy. Her legacy extends to her 16 grandchildren: Tayler (Austin) Cariveau, Chelsey (Chase) Remboldt, Layne (Madison Rivinius, fiancé), Duppong, Madisyn Duppong, Tionna Harrington, LaShana Nadvornik, Raven Schiley, Sheldon and Leland Nelson, DaeLynn, Christa, Landon, and Jada Nadvornik, Jazzy, Zayden and Kyon Bellerud. 4 great-grandchildren: Breyah Duppong, Bryan Nadvornik, Oliver and Oaklee Nadvornik, and baby Remboldt coming in August. They will forever cherish the memories they created with their beloved grandmother.

She was a woman of many talents, holding various jobs throughout her life. Whether she was serving tables as a waitress, cooking up comfort food, or tending bar, Sandi's diligence and cheerful demeanor made her a cherished presence. Her career path led her to Baker Boy in Richardton, and from 1996 to 2013, she served as a Certified Nursing Assistant at the Marian Manor HealthCare Center, where her gentle nature and golden heart touched countless lives. Until her cancer diagnosis, Sandi worked as a grocery clerk at the Super Valu Store in Glen Ullin, where her warm smile and laughter made shopping a little brighter for everyone.

Sandi cherished every moment spent with her family, especially her grandchildren. She found joy in the simple pleasures of life-crossword puzzles, reading, and cross-stitching. Her love for dancing, particularly to 'BYE, BYE', BYE by NSYNC, was infectious, as she proudly showcased her moves to her daughters.

Sandi's kindness, gentle nature, and unwavering spirit left a lasting impression, on everyone she met. Her laughter, like a comforting melody, will echo in the hearts of those who knew her. Her life was a testament to the power of love and kindness, and her memory will live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her.

Preceded in death by her parents, brothers Ray and Vernon, sister Joann, infant brother Delbert, and infant daughters Sherri and Jasmine, Sandi is survived by her devoted husband Bruce, her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, as well as a loving extended family that includes countless friends who became family over the years.

As we say goodbye to Sandi, we are reminded of the beauty she brought into the world and the legacy of love she leaves behind. May she rest in peace, forever cherished and never forgotten.
