Sasha Krause Obituary
Farmington - Sasha Marie Krause, 27, resident of Farmington, New Mexico, passed away on Saturday, January 18, 2020. She was born April 8, 1992 in Temple, Texas to Robert and Laura Krause. Her parents joined the Mennonite church when she was 11 years old and Sasha soon realized her need for Jesus, her Saviour. She became a Christian and grew in her love for the Lord. In her youth she began writing poems and lyrics for hymns. For six years she taught school at Grandview Gospel Fellowship. One and a half years before her death, she moved to New Mexico and began work at Lamp & Light Publishers. She was instrumental in the literature ministry in Spanish, French, and English.
Sasha is loved and greatly missed by her parents: Robert and Laura Krause, her siblings: Amanda, Megan (William Knepp), Emma, Robert, Evelyn, and Sara Krause, her grandparents: Tau Smith and Bob & Paula Krause, her great-grandmother: Vertrice Smith, 5 aunts and 9 cousins. She was preceded in death by her grandfather, Gary Smith.
A funeral service was held in the family's hometown of Itasca, TX on Friday, February 28.

While you do not know me, I am one of many believers that heard about Sasha and prayed for a different outcome. Now my prayers are for the comfort of God's promises. Sasha lives, and is much more alive there in the presence of her Savior, than we are here in this broken world. We will meet our loved ones in Christ again. Comfort yourselves with this truth.

Jesus said, I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
