Sadie Yates Obituary
Sadie was in Girl Scouts as a young girl and grew so much from that here in Jacksonville where she attended grades K – 8th. As she grew in mind and spirit we as a family decided she needed new growth in other areas that Jacksonville could not offer here in Duval County. We took a leap of faith and moved to McRae Georgia where she attended Telfair County High School (TCHS). She immediately fell in love with the area and all the folks she came in contact with. She had many friends at school and decided to become active and joined Literary and Creative Arts Club at (TCHS). Sadie was always creative and had done summer camps Art and Dance in her past so this was the perfect club for her. Her plan was to graduate with honors and go to SCADS in Savannah Georgia. She wanted to get a degree in production and directing. Her plan was in motion, she had already been named in the McRae Enterprise with Honors and Merit this past semester. She was always family first and as she quoted many time "The greatest of all is Love". She lived those words in her everyday life. She would be the first to lend a hand or help out whatever was needed in any situation. She knew how fortunate she was and would share anything she had with those who needed it. Her heart was genuinely full of love and she would share that with anyone who would let her.
She is survived by her parents Steven Eric and Susan Norris Yates, her Grandparents Glenn & Charlene Yates, Two brothers with their wives Joseph & Amber, Matthew & Angela Castelvecchi. She had four uncles (Rick, Barry, Jeff and Joel); six aunts (Polly, Crystal, Debra, Edwena, Kelley and Angie), one nephew (JJ), five nieces (Mackenzie, Karissa, Lindsey, Haley and Shelby.) She had numerous great aunts & uncles, along with many cousins. So many dear friends she had made along the way that she cherish everyday. She also has two dogs Holly & Dolly that she was sure the sun rose and set in these two little girls.
A celebration of Sadie's life will be held Sunday February 10, 2013, at 1 PM at Hardage-Giddens Funeral Home, 729 S. Edgewood Ave, Jacksonville. Friends may call after 12 Noon.

Dear Sadie,
I am sending my love and I know that you are with your Mom and Dad always!
I love you Sweetheart and I always will. I miss seeing your beautiful face and hearing your sweet laughter.
I have a very special baby that went back to Heaven about the same time as you did, and I feel as though God is letting you watch this baby girl until her Mommy comes one day. You were so special to me.

Sadie mom wrote your thank you notes this morning. It was hard but neccsarry; we still have our moments that we get over whelmed with grief. We try to stay busy so as not to be so sad. Remember you are always in our hearts and we will be waiting to see you soon. Life just isn't the same without you. I miss you terribly!!

Sadie dad and I can not express how sad we are although we know it is selfish knowing how wonderful life for you now must be. You will not have to endure all the life heart aches that comes with living in this world. We just don't know what to do or plan beings life will be so different now with you gone. You always made us so proud of the person you were becoming. The loving heart and that beautiful smile you always had is forever imprinted in our mind. So until we meet again we miss and love you Sadielady.

My heart is so heavy because of your loss. Sadie was a wonderful young lady, that enjoyed meeting everyone that she encountered. I am very fortunate that she came into my life.
My Prayers and love go to Susan & Steve, as well as her brothers and all of her family. To say that she will be missed is an understatement. Angels like Sadie are not born every day. I hope one day all of this will make sense, as I know right now nothing does. GOD must have great plans for her in Heaven, is all that I can say. Knowing that she loved our Loving God, I know is a source of comfort for some. May the rest find comfort soon.
I love you Sadie!

Absolutely devastating to hear about such a tragedy for Susan, Steve and the Family. Susan you're such a great parent to move to McRae to be with your child. There are NEVER words to truly express such a loss. Please know you are in many peoples thoughts and prayres some you may not have seen in many years. I wish God grants you peace and in the hardest of times rest assure Sadies body may be gone but she is always with you. I promise. With love and concern to all.

Susan and Steve, what a beautiful tribute to your beautiful Sadie. Words are inadequate to express my heartfelt sorrow and love for you both. I know that our Lord will keep you strong and secure at this sad time and that He has our precious Sadie safe in His loving arms right now. What a beautiful child--and she was even prettier inside than out with her loving heart and soul. I love you both and you are in my thoughts and prayers especially now.

Hi Susan and Steve. Unfortunately I am stuck in Maine with this big snow storm so I will not be back to attend the funeral with Margee. I will have you all in my thought and prayers. It is rough I know and I know how strong you all are. Sadie is in a great place with plenty of people watching over her for you. You take care and I will be in touch whe I get back. Love you girl!
