Not sure what to say?

I still find it hard to believe that Sarah is gone. While my memories of her are from our three summer months in 1969 when we met at the Kettering Elder Beerman department store where I worked at my summer job during college, these memories of spending that entire summer together are still very vivid in my mind. She was so funny, so beautiful, and so fun to be with. Learning about the many tragedies surrounding her family and herself just doesn't seem right.

I am sorry to learn that Sarah passed. I knew her from R.I. We had lunch several times and toured Hilltop retirement apartments around 2021. She had many challenges in life and met them with grace. R.I.P.

I was listening to a podcast today that mentioned teachers that made a difference in their students´ lives, and I immediately thought about Mrs. Henderson. After realizing I hadn´t seen or heard from her on Facebook recently, I was incredibly sad to discover that she had passed away when I visited her page. She was both my second and fourth grade teacher in Willard, and she was also our next door neighbor on Myrtle Ave. for a number of years. I have so many fond memories of her and loved that...

It has been a year now since Sarah's passing, and I think of her often. Time is fleeting indeed.

I am truly saddened by Sarah's passing. She was my girlfriend during the summer of 1969, while I was home from college, and she was still in high school. I knew her as "Sally" back then, as she had not yet decided to go by her given first name. She was bubbly, and full of life, and we spent a wonderful summer together before I returned to the U. of Montana that fall. I lost track of her for over 40 years, only to find her profile on Facebook, and learn of her medical issues. May she rest...

Amanda and Becca - I was saddened to learn of your mom's passing. I enjoyed staying at her home on French and chatting with her often. She was such a sweet lady. Sending my condolences to both of you and your families.

As a fellow Recoveryite -- I know how much Recovery has meant to her. She will be missed.

I am so sorry to hear about your mom. She was a great lady and I will never forget her. She will be missed and prayers to your family.

I'm so sorry to hear of Sarah's passing. She was a cool person, very graceful but youthful, also! I remember chatting with her 2 Summers ago at the RI picnic. I'm so glad we got to know each other better. So sorry to see you go, Sarah, but I know full well the Lord has already lifted you up on Eagles' Wings to Paradise!
