Martina was predeceased by her father Michael.
Known to her friends as ‘Tina’, she previously worked in the Healthwise Pharmacy in Ballyraine.
She is a cousin of mountain climber Jason Black, who said: “She always saw the positive side in everything. Everyone in the community knew her. She would have always had a wonderful hello and smile for people.”
