Brian and family.... we were so saddened to hear of Sara's accident. Cannot even imagine what you and the children are having to go through. We remember Sara always having a smile on her face and so easy to talk to at the softball fields when our granddaughter Lenka played with McKenna. Our hearts are with you and we are praying for peace for you all.

I am so sorry for your loss. I was lucky enough to get to know Sara both while working at the County Jail and Work Release. She was always friendly and always went out of her way to help me at both places.

No one can possibly know the pain you all are going through. I only knew Sara a little over a year, and am so blessed to have had even a little time with her. She was an amazing person and she will be missed by so many people. Prayers to everyone for some kind peace to all of you. RIP my friend.
