Sada was a veteran of the United States Army who proudly served in the Korean War. He was a dedicated machinist at the former General Mailing Services, and foreman at United Bindery Service and the former Printing Master Services. He truly enjoyed the camaraderie with the people he had the opportunity to work with. In his retirement, he enjoyed family times, tending to his garden, watching Chicago sport teams, going to the racetracks, and casinos. Our deep appreciation to Margarita Herrera, Alejandra Gaytan, Alicia Robles, and Joserin Barrera for the compassionate care and support they provided to both our parents.
