Sarah E. Minifie, beloved daughter, sister and friend was found passed away on April 3, 2021. She lived more life in her short 45 years than many do in a lifetime. Sarah, a native Oregonian, was born and raised in the Rogue Valley. After high school graduation, she served her country in the National Guard including an overseas deployment. She was named Oregon Solider of the Year in 1996 and subsequently placed 2nd Runner up as the Western States Division for the National Solider of the Year. After working in finance on the East Coast, Sarah returned to her home state of Oregon and blossomed to live as her authentic self. She served as a friend and mentor to countless others who also sought to unapologetically live their truth. Sarah embodied unconditional love. She was kind, compassionate, full of energy and always willing to help a friend or stranger in need. She will serve as an eternal inspiration to those who knew her. She is survived by her mother, father, sister, brother, aunt, two nephews and a legion of friends. Due to covid-19 restrictions, a private celebration of life service will be held in Sarah’s honor by invitation. In lieu of flowers, the family request donations be made in Sarah’s name to the Trauma Intervention Program NW at https://www.tipnw.org/.
