Sarah Lee Oldham Whalen

We actually have a calling card from Sara that we have in a frame along with another dear friend. That was the impact Sara had on us both. A truly wonderful, full of grace , wit, fun and sometimes outlandish!
It’s been so long but it is only yesterday that Tom would throw her newspaper up to her balcony so she could read it over her morning coffee. A bit too Ill to always make the stairs in the morning. Tom always made sure her plants were watered. Not much we could do to help but we...

Sarah was our neighbor for a short time but in that short time we knew we had met someone very special. We would cook and bring some dinner over to Sarah and she in turn would be at our door asking us to try something she had just cooked. "Do you need a bottle of wine", she would always ask? "Please come over if you ever run short." So many talks over the fence, so many laughs. Always a minute to say hello with that wonderful smile, no matter how bad she felt. We knew Sarah fussed over...

I will miss Sarah and think of her often. Will continue to work her monday at Stein Mart and see her many pictures in our Destin Womens Club picture I have and when I dance. She was a friend and loved her dearly.

Sarah was my closest friend and like a sister to me. She will be missed greatly. My prayers and thoughts are with Tracy and Terry. I have such good memories to cherish.

I love you, Sarah!!!!!

So very sad that we won't get to enjoy more time with Sarah. She was a lovely, lovely woman. Heaven does have a new Angel. Will cherish the memories of the few times I had met her - the Boutique will never be the same...My Dad Gerald Peltier considered Sarah a Dear Friend & enjoyed her company immensely! Please know that her family will be in my prayers...

To the Whalen family! Sorry to hear of your loss.

Long time Gerald Dr. neighbor and Friend. Enjoyed the many parties!

Sarah was a special person!

Terry and Tracy,
I am so sorry so hear about your mom. I have thought about her often. We certainly did have many wonderful times together on Gerald Drive. I will have great memories of her. Keeping both of you in my prayers.
