Sara Craig Kirkland Purcell

Jim, and family. We are saddened to hear the news of Sara's passing. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers in the time to come.

Jim, it is with profound grief that I read that Sara, your wife and my high school friend has passed. May God Almighty comfort you. Charles

Dr. Purcell and Family, it is with very fond memories of your wife, mother, and grandmother, that I am writing this message. Mrs. Purcell was such a wonderful and loving woman with the most beautiful smile that I have ever seen. As a young African American male growing up in the south, during a time when not everyone was "accepting" of someone like me studying ballet. Mrs. Purcell always made me feel as if I were one of her own, especially when she accompanied us on several trips to New...

Jimmy -- I'm so sorry. Thinking of you. hugs Jane

Dr. Purcell, Katharine, Jimmy and Michael, - I am so sorry to learn of Mrs. Purcell's passing. She will be missed. My prayers are with you during this sad time.

I was so sorry to see Sara's obituary. I have such fond memories of her from Robert Ivey Ballet. Sara was such a dedicated supporter and board member. We had the best of times when we travelled to Denmark and Russia. I always picture her with a smile. My sincere condolences to her family.

Dr. Purcell, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your wife. God bless you and your family as you relish in the beautiful memories that you shared throughout the years. Love in Christ, Gail Brownlee
