Sarah Elizabeth Eudy, age 82, of Newland, North Carolina passed away on Monday, December 9, 2024 at her residence.
She was born on January 12,1942 in Pulaski County, Arkansas, a daughter of the late John Elwood Blagg and the late Martha Marietta McNeal Blagg.
She was preceded in death by her mother, Martha Marietta Blagg; father, John Elwood Blagg; and her husband, Ralph Clifton Eudy.
Born the seventh of eight children, Sarah enjoyed the close-knit bond of a large, hard-working family. She cared deeply for her parents and siblings and continued to keep in close contact with them throughout her life.
On October 28,1967 in Little Rock, Arkansas, Sarah married Ralph Eudy. There they celebrated the birth of their two sons, James Kevin and John Kyle. In 1976, the family relocated to Roaring Creek in Avery County, North Carolina, where Sarah fully embraced the life of an Appalachian woman.
A full-time wife and mother, Sarah was also a full-time dental assistant working for several decades for local dentists and, eventually, in Avery County's correctional facility. She was a faithful member of Roaring Creek Free Will Baptist Church where she taught Sunday school and lived out her faith in her beloved Roaring Creek community.
Cheering for her boys through every sport they played, Sarah was a practical, resourceful mother whose love knew no bounds. Her willingness to chauffeur, cook, clean, and nurture her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren were the trademark of her life. With a quick wit and a voice filled with wisdom, Sarah had the uncanny ability to show empathy, understanding, and love for both her family and her beloved pets. The time she spent with each of her family members is her legacy and is the treasure each of them will carry into their futures.
Sarah leaves behind to cherish her memory two sons, Kevin (Hollie) Eudy of Dahlonega, GA, Kyle Eudy of Newland, NC; six grandchildren, katelynn (Nick) Wagner, Trevor (Abby) Eudy, Ansley Eudy, Dustin Eudy, Gabe (Kayla) Eudy, and Violet Greene; and four great-granddaughters, Vera Wagner, Briley Walker, Bailey Walker, and Brinley Walker.
Services for Sarah Elizabeth Eudy will be held on Friday, December 13, 2024 beginning at 1:00 pm from the Roaring Creek Baptist Church with Pastor Rick Smith officiating. Interment will follow in the Eudy Family Cemetery.
The family will receive friends one hour prior to the services at the church on Friday.
The family would like to extend their sincere thanks and appreciation to the staff of Amorem Hospice of the High Country for the care and love they had for Sarah.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to: Amorem Hospice of the High Country PCU Fund, 902 Kirkwood St NW Lenoir, NC 28645.
