Sarah Fisher Pearlman passed away peacefully on October 18, 2021 at her home. She was born in Roanoke, VA, April 30, 1939, the daughter of the late Julius and Mary Fisher.

Sarah truly loved everyone. She brought laughter and lightness to every situation.

Sarah graduated from UNC-Greensboro where she made lifelong friends, and met her husband, the late Robert B. Pearlman, while visiting Chapel Hill. Sarah worked with her husband, traveling and organizing his consulting seminars. After the death of her husband, she moved into retail where she treated all of her customers like family. Sarah was an active member of Beth David Synagogue for 60 years.

In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her husband and daughter, Rebecca Rose.

She is survived by her children Fred (Kelly) Pearlman and Julia (Ray) Fligman, and granddaughters Rachel Fligman and Jennifer Pearlman.

A graveside service will be at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, October 20, 2021 at the Greensboro Hebrew Cemetery. Virtual access will be available at www.AdvantageGreensboro.com.

One of my favorite memories of Sarah happened at my nephew´s Bar Mitzvah. It was in Charlotte and I had no idea she would be there. She hadn´t seen me in a few years, but she came up behind me, tapped me on the shoulder and hugged me when I turned around. She was so warm and kind to me, and I always looked for her at my other nephews bar mitzvahs, and she went to all of them.
