Sara always had a smile to share! She is definitely one of the sweetest, most gracious people that I had the privilege to know.

Sara grew into an amazing woman with a wonderful family. She married my cousin and together they had three beautiful children. Sara had a quiet strength that she passed to her children. Today they are the strong, successful young people she would have hoped for. We all miss her dry wit and calm manner. I miss having her here to share memories with and laugh with. Much love to you, dear friend.
