She lived in Quincy and Tallahassee through-out her life. She was an avid golfer, bridge and tennis player winning the Tallahassee Tennis Championship.
She was preceded in death by her husband Joe T. Budd and brother Willard Rodgers. She is survived by her sister-in-law Irene Rodgers, nieces: Sundy Rodgers, Sarah Rodgers (husband Dave Anderson), Linda Curtis (husband Rodger) and lifelong friend Pug Buckwalter.
For the last five years she received care from Pat Thompson, Ruthie Boyd, Natasha Fitzgerald, Barbara Mc Nealy, Kimberly Bryant, Angela Register and Deborah Threatts. It was because of their love and care that made it possible for her to remain in her home. By faith, Sarah was a Presbyterian.
