Not sure what to say?

Dedie, although we haven’t seen each other in many years, please know that prayers of peace are being sent to you and your family at this heartbreaking timeWith love, Katie Gerhart Millslagle

I was shift officer on another platoon, retired in 2013. I remember Sarah as a very caring paramedic. She was over the moon when she had Clair and Elise. Always smiling, always happy. My heart goes out to her beautiful family.

Chris, sending you love and light as you navigate this devastating loss. My heart is aching for you and your girls. I wish you peace and the warm glow of happy memories of your beloved Sarah.

Always enjoyed our talks when dropping the girls off at preschool. Sarah was always so supportive and enthusiastic about her girls.

We spent many years on the soccer sidelines with Sarah. She was a wonderful person and an amazing mom. She often showed up still in uniform as to not miss a chance to see Elise in action! We send our thoughts and prayers to Chris, Elise, and Claire during this very difficult time.

Praying for the entire family.

Praying for Chris the girls, family and friends.

Chris, I'm deeply sorry for your loss, prayers to you and the girls, family and friends.

Sarah was with me and comfort me as she and her wonderful team tried to revive my wonderful husband of 58 years. She had to tell me that they were not able to bring him back.
He went to heaven that night.
When I saw her face on the news I recognized her as that person who was such a blessing to me that night.
That was Sept 23rd 2024.
My God wrap his loving arms around her family.
