Sari Smith Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Apr. 5 to Apr. 8, 2023.
Sari Lynn Smith, known to herself as "Candy," passed away peacefully on March 28, 2023, surrounded by unconditional love. Though she was born in Chicago, Illinois, she was a West Coast girl through and through. She soaked up all of the sunshine possible and radiated that light to anyone and everyone she came into contact with. She had many roles throughout her life, but her biggest and proudest, was being a mommy to Harper and Greyson. Without question, she simply excelled at being a mommy and a best friend to so many remarkable people. She loved her life partner Jeff Graulich, and his children, Reid, Jacob, and Saige, as her own. She made everyone feel so special and was the most selfless person with the kindest heart and most genuine intentions. She was everyone's biggest cheerleader with an internal strength and devotion to those she loved greater than anything imaginable. She was the most loving daughter to her parents, Andy and Esther Dosick, the best Sissy any sister could ever need or deserve to Michelle Ginsburg, and a caring sister-in-law and aunt to Terry, Jordana, Lila, and Max.

She was always baking "goodies" for everyone but herself, purely for the joy everyone else received from her tasty treats. In lieu of flowers, though she loved those too, please consider donating financial goodies to help her family cover the expenses of her medical care and organize a celebration of life fit for the Queen Bee that she was. This can be done through her GoFundMe titled Sari Smith Memorial Fund. Her light and love lives on through us all and she will forever be the most special soul.
