Sending my most heartfelt condolences to Sarah's beloved family. Sarah was a true Angel here on earth. From the moment I met her 7 yrs ago, we had an instant connection through laughter. She will be greatly missed by her family, friends and acquaintances. I know that she is no longer in pain and will be watching down on her family. Such a beautiful soul who had a flame that burned so bright, has been extinguished way too soon. Much love the The Berlin family during this tragic time.

Thinking of you all and grateful for the bonds of love we share.

Dear Steve, Andrea, Chelsey, Mike and David,
I and my entire family express our sincerest condolences for the incredible loss of beautiful Sarah.

Sarah's beautiful spark touched many lives and I'm grateful she touched mine, even if briefly. "All I know is something like a bird within her sang,
All I know she sang a little while and then flew on"

There are no words I can offer that fully explain the sorrow I feel for your loss. Sarah was a life force of energy, love, and tolerance. To know her was to love her. My favorite memory is of the interview she did of me a few years ago for a course she was taking. She came to my home, asked questions, and shared some of her plans/dreams for the future. It was all too brief, but it was enough to feel her joy. She was one of those few people, who could walk into a room and shed light and happiness. Her smile was contagious. I am so grateful to have known her and her amazing family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sending love and prayers and Mike...Chase sends his love to you and your family! Peace
