Dear Adelman Family,

Sarah will always be remembered as a bright, wonderful, loving person. I had the opportunity to work closely with her at the JCC in Newton, and she made a huge difference in my life, and I know to those around her as well. She will be missed tremendously.

To the Adelman Family:



I attended both undergraduate and graduate school with Sarah, but I didn't know her until graduate school. I will always remember passing notes and stifling giggles with her in one of the many classes we took together. She will always be remembered and deeply missed.

To Sarah's family and friends:



I was saddened to hear of Sarah's death. I knew Sarah as an undergraduate student and I remember watching her perform (dance) at Brandeis. She was a generous-spirited and lovely young woman. Our community has lost some of it's richness with her passing. I've heard from many of her friends in the past week who are also devastated. We hope to remember her more formally when school begins again.



Again, our prayers and thoughts are with you all.

Dear Adelman family,

Just want to let you know that I've been thinking about you a lot. I remember Sarah visiting Shani at Camp Stone when we were barely in high school. Hamakom yenachem etchem b'toch shaar evlei tzion v'yerushalayim. Wish I could be with you.

To Sarah's family,



My name is Jennifer Helgeson and I am a graduate of Brandeis University. Though I was not close with Sarah, I remember her kindness and bright smile when I was an "underclassman" and she was an “upperclassman.” I know Shani through Paul and we have shared very nice times during her visits to Brandeis. I lost my only sibling, Andrew, to sudden cardiac death 25 May 2005. I understand the pain of such loss, and may you never know such great loss and pain ever again. There will always be a hole in your lives, I will not lie and say "time heals," it will make things easier, but not whole. Know that Sarah touched so many; I will always cherish her welcoming and kind nature and hold fond memories; she will not be forgotten. May you know no more suffering. With all my best wishes and love.
