Sarah was born September 6, 1959 in Indianapolis, Indiana. Sarah "Mouse" Eckert grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she learned to bleed Black & Gold (Go Steelers!). She was married in Pittsburgh on April 20th, 1985 to the love of her life Patrick Brady, and has spent the last 35 years moving between Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, and Georgia until she landed in Colorado. She has gained many friends along the way, and so often said that "Travel is my Hobby." Those that knew her knew she lived a spunky, quick-witted, and positive life. We will always remember her at home with her family, on the back of a motorcycle, drinking a glass of red wine, watching the Steelers, on the beaches of Cape Cod and sharing the gift of kindness to everyone around her.
Sarah was battling colon cancer for 10 years with resilience, hope, and unwavering faith in Christ. Throughout her journey she continued to do the things she loved, including being with her family, and never focused on herself and her disease, but took care of everyone around her. "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." - Jeremiah 29:11-13.
Sarah was the most incredible wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, grandmother, and friend. Surviving relatives include her husband, Patrick Brady, son, Alex Brady, and daughter, Hannah Brady; sisters Carol Fuchella, and Jean Eckert-Dobbs; brother Stephen Eckert; and many other friends and family.
