Sarah was such a sweet lovely lady. She made us feel at home the first Sunday we visited Immanuel. We named our circle Sarah after her and I still attend every month; it is the largest and most active of Immanuel's circles. My condolences and prayers for her family.

Glen, my deepest sympathy to you and your family. I know you will miss your mother, but how wonderful it is that she lived such a long and full life.

Mrs. Bagby was one of the sweetest and most gracious people I've ever known. I have only happy memories of seeing her in the parsonage after church. She never pried into our activities, thank heaven, but always was interested in hearing how our lives were going. May God bless this wonderful lady and her family.
