Not sure what to say?

I am late to read of your sad passing and hope you are resting in peace, Sarah after a life of many contributions to many people and organizations.

My Condolences to family and loved ones. This morning, after a simple dream, I read about Sarah's passing online, beautiful fitting obituary. Sad to read about her passing, yet so moved by her life! What a gem, a treasure, a light!

Dear Bliss and family -
My thoughts are with you today
Sending much love..

May your bright memories of fun times together with Sarah be a comfort to all who loved her, now, and always,

Sarah Holland may you rest in peace. I hold you dearly and with the fondest memories of your boldness and humour and serenity. Sharing many a time with you at the Women's 11th and The Promises. Your grin and twinkly eyes full of fun. My dear friend, my dear friend, you are with me. May your family and friend rejoice in a life so very well lived. Amen.

Sarah was an extraordinary person-full of life,humor,and compassion. We started our journey together almost 38 years ago at Foglifters. I will never forget you. Doug Lobel

So a breath of fresh air when Sarah walked in the room. Always kind and always open. Such sadness that you are gone.

Lovely to share the path with you for a while, Sarah. I found you to be elegant and kind at all times. And will miss knowing that you are in the world.
Marcia Tompkins

May your light continue to shine on all you touched
