Having been married to Michael Grade for several years, she remarried David Maher, an Irishman, and from 1998 she took a hiatus from producing choosing to raise a family and to renovate the historic property Ardbraccan in Ireland; however, she did remain the executive producer of a BBC radio show ("Baldi"), and frequently consulted other industry members on various projects. Her main work focus up until 2008 had been getting the project "Grace O'Malley" (along with Anne Chambers, a biographer of the famous Irish pirate) up off the ground; in 2008 it was commissioned by RTÉ. Sadly, Sarah never got to see the project completed. Sarah died on November 8th, 2008, after many years of courageously battling cancer.
