I will miss my Aunt Sarah deeply. I use to tell her she was my favorite Aunt and she'd reply "I'm your only Aunt" She was there for me after my mother's passing to fill the void. She always had a smile even when things weren't going well for her and never complained. She buried 7 special people in her life time including her two children and husband, but yet stayed strong and comforted others through their own sorrows. She was the strongest person I've ever known. I will miss her for ever.

One of the most amazing women I have ever met of the face of this earth. I was glad I had so much time being close enough to be involved in some of her family. I can't imagine the hugs and love she is getting during her reunion. She will be greatly missed.

I was heartbroken to hear of Sarah's passing. She and I go way back many years. I was the director of Forrester-Davis for many years and she was such an integral part of the Center. She was my birthing coach with my first baby 37 years ago. She's always been a driving force and she will truly be missed. Prayers to your all for comfort and peace.
