Amber Leigh Martin passed away peacefully at the age of 65 on March 23 2024 with her family by her side. Amber awoke in the world on August 29
1958 as the daughter of Stan Lewellyn and Rochelle Kahler whom she was preceded in death. Amber was survived by Chuck Martin, her rock, who stood by her side for 32 years, her two sisters Desiree Schuyler and Diedra Lewellyn, and her three sons Jeremiah, Jason, and Jasiah Gaylord. Her grandchildren Peyton, Paige, Kaison, Jasara, Kailee, Cyris and Zillah Gaylord.
Amber, who hated to be called 'Grandma' because it sounded old, went by Grandmommie who hollered and yelled regardless if the stands were quiet at every sports event of her grandbabies. She was our family's biggest cheerleader whether it was sports, making food, our individual passions, or the next big steps we were making in our lives. Amber left us with her open ears, honest mouth, and of course her holiday nails. She was the magnet that always held us together, as she still will be forever and always.

My dear sweet cousin Amber Martin, who was more like a sister to me growing up has been called home. Thank you Amber for all the memories. Your energy and your excitement for life was contagious. Lancaster was Fun when you stayed with us. I never wanted you to go home. Through the good times and the bad, I always knew you were there to remind me to let Jesus take the wheel. You reminded me that everything was going to be okay and to be strong like you. Your Faith gave me Hope and your Love was unconditional. When you talked about your family, you lit up and I´m not exaggerating! Everyone you loved, you loved with your whole heart and soul. You will be missed Amber and I´ll love you forever. Jesus take the Wheel.
