We are very saddened knowing Sara is no longer with us. She was such a wonderful person with a good sense of humor.
When we moved to Lynnwood from CA in 1974, Sara made us feel right at home.
She is now resting in peace.

With Sincere Sympathy,

John, Carol, Steve and Nancy

Across the country was too far to see each other very often but the memories of Sara of those times we did get together are simply words like nice, pleasant and sweet. Loved the way she pronounced Don - "Dawn".

Hi Don, John and Tim,
I am so sorry to hear about Sara. I have such good memories as a child of Sara when John and I would be playing at your house. She was always very welcoming and hospitable. I also so appreciate when she had my bridal shower at your house. She was a wonderful woman and I am so sorry for your loss. You will all be in my thoughts.

I am so sorry to hear about Sara and Kevin's passing. I worked with Kevin at Safeway at the time that I had my daughter. This family let me use their rocking horse for her and when she was done, I called Sara to return it to them so they could use it for their grandchildren. Great family in my books!
