Dear Wanda, family and friends of Sara,

I will join with my brother Stan in cherishing fond memories of the friendship, that our parents Eleanor and Stanley, shared with Sara and Konnie. Always smiling, and so kind, their presence was always welcomed! They were an elegant couple!

I am so sorry for your loss. God bless you Sara!

I always enjoyed seeing Sara and Konnie at any of our family functions. Konnie was my godfather and as a youngster I can remember the great presents they gave me on my birthdays and at Christmas. I was saddened when Konnie left this world too soon but through my mother, Eleanore, we always stayed in touch with Sara and Wanda. If you can remember or ever saw pictures of Konnie and Sara at a dress up event, they were snazzy dressers, she was always dressed up, dolled up, complete with shiny dress, outstanding jewelry and a fur wrap, a big smile on her face, like a movie star. I will miss her.
