Sarah was my friend, church family member and loved by myself and our family.  Sarah had a smile that could light up the room and a laugh only Sarah could share with you.  She had a sense of humor that allowed a "smart mouth" like me feel accepted and appreciated.  I will miss her for selfish reasons and praise God that her suffering is over awaiting the words Well done thou good and faithful servant come forth and receive your new perfect body.  I pray on Resurrection Day we will all be reunited, See you then my dear Sister.   

My memory of dear Sarah is that she was kind of like my boss at church. She would often "spell it out for me" about the matters of life in simple terms. I respected her as one of the long-time elder members of the church, so the thoughts she shared with me mattered indeed! She encouraged me to press on towards that high calling in Jesus. I liked how Sarah and Bob reflected a couple that were committed to each other. She seemed to live in the present and was always willing to share a hug. God's peace and blessings to the family in her loss

Sarah was such a fighter!!!  Always positive. Never giving up. She was such an inspiration to me. I will miss giving her a hug. She trusted the Lord with all her heart. She will be missed. 

No matter what the situation was...Sarah always had a smile and something nice to say.  Yet, she was firm in her convictions.  Her years as a school bus driver said it all...she was patient yet firm and those kids who rode on her bus knew it.  She was a devoted wife and mother and always available for volunteer work at the church.  Her years of devotion to Community Service are still recognized as a standard for others to live by.  She and Bob always enjoyed the "lunch" participation with all the volunteers and especially during Thanksgiving holiday when hundreds of baskets were handed out.  She was always there helping.
We will miss her in her favorite seat but look forward to seeing her in her favorite seat in the Kingdom.  

Sarah was such an inspiration to all of us! She was always cheerful and upbeat, never complaining, no matter what. She continued coming to church, even when I am sure she felt terrible, but you would never have known by listening to her or seeing her.
 I look forward to that great resurrection morning when Jesus will raise her to life again, a life with no more pain, sorrow or suffering, but only happiness and joy. I, for one, want to be faithful, and meet her in that glad day!
