Funeral is held for SI mom killed in Turkey








A New Yorker killed while vacationing alone in Turkey is being remembered as a good-hearted and joyful person.

A funeral was being held Friday on Staten Island for Sarai Sierra, a mother of two.

The service began with a prayer and "Amazing Grace" played by pipers from the transit system. Sierra's husband is a bus driver.

Her body was found Feb. 2 in Istanbul, 12 days after she disappeared. Police say she suffered a fatal blow to the head.

The 33-year-old went to Turkey to explore her hobby, photography. A friend who was supposed to join her canceled for financial reasons.
