Sabrina Lynn Walker

Sabrina L. (Facas) Walker, 45, of East Hartford, passed away with family by her side on Thursday, March 24, 2022 after a short but courageous battle with cancer. She was born in New London on July 10, 1976 to Hendrick and Gail (Bowen) Facas. She was a licensed Drug and Alcohol Counselor who worked as a clinical supervisor at the Health Care Resource Center in Hartford. She graduated from Waterford High School in 1994 and went on to earn a Bachelor’s Degree in Criminal Justice and a Master’s degree in Psychology, both from The University of New Haven. She loved working with people, which led her to open her own therapy practice.

Sabrina married Edward Walker in April of 2005. They welcomed their first child Ariel in 2007 and their second child Mason in 2010. Her children meant the world to her, and there is nothing she wouldn’t have done for them. She was a member of St. Ann’s Church in Waterford, where she was married and had both of her children baptized. She lived life to its fullest and loved spending time with her children. She would take them on vacations to Disney, on family cruises to the Caribbean, basically anywhere with palm trees and sun. She loved to do any and all things that involved family and friends. She was an avid collector of anything with a Palm Tree. When not traveling you could find her curled up with a good book and a cup of coffee or taking walks with her kids.

In addition to leaving her husband Edward and two children Ariel and Mason, she leaves behind a brother, Hendrick Facas II and wife Melissa of Manchester, CT, a sister, Anissa Starr and husband David of Lisbon, CT. She also leaves behind brothers-in-law Michael and wife Mary Walker of California, David and wife Jackie Walker of Glastonbury, sisters-in-law Debbie Green of East Hartford and Nancy Shasha of South Windsor. She also leaves behind many beloved nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her father Hendrick Facas, I.
