I remember our camping trip with our two sons, Austin and Matt. Great of Sarah to join us on Austin's boy scout camp out; helping me, the novice camper set up a tent and be
a savy boy scout mom. She really was an adventuresome and capable
outdoorswoman. I'll always remember that experience as well as our walks with the dogs,
and many wonderful visits together.
We all treasured a spiritual
fellowship with dear Sarah.

I'll miss you, sister-in-law .... or SIL-LY as we used to call each other. You truly are the finest woman I've ever known. I guess I'm off the hook as far as our plan to go sky diving is concerned .... what a relief! Love you always ...

Sarah.....one of the sweetest and most beautiful women I have known. She didn't make a splash but she made a difference in the lives of all she met. You have been a source of comfort to me, my sister in Christ. My thoughts are with Bob and children.

Mrs Lottes was one of the biggest assets I had in my years of schooling. She was always willing to spend the extra time needed to help see me through a problem weather it was scholastic or personal. My life is definately richer because of her influence in my life. Until we meet again in Heaven with Our Father, so long. Save me a seat up front.

Sarah,(to me she will always be remembered as Sarah Jane) was probably the kindest and most unselfish person I ever knew. I always looked up to her and will remember her with great love and affection.
My sincere condolences to Bob, her children and grandchildren.

Sarah was a DEAR person, and a very good friend for many years. I am deeply saddened for the loss her family is suffering. She loved her husband, her children, and her grandchildren, and her Lord. Sarah is experiencing now what "eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, nor has entered into the minds" of those of us left here on earth. While her passing is deeply mourned, we can know of a certainty that she has come into eternal peace and joy and love, and that we who know Jesus as Lord will see her again.
