MELIA, Sarah Elizabeth (nee: Sind), of Chesterfield, passed away suddenly on March 6, 2025 at age 46. Beloved wife of Peter. Proud and loving mother of Eliana and Nicolette. Cherished daughter of Joseph and Patricia Sind, daughter-in-law of Dominic and Paula Melia, and granddaughter-in-law of Antonino Mediati. Dear sister of the late Joseph Sind III and sister-in-law of Antonino Melia. Also survived by many loving aunts, uncles, cousins, and lifelong friends. Sarah was a graduate of Regina High School and Wayne State University; she had a successful career as vice president of wealth management for Raymond James. She was a respected confidant and friend to many of her clients and was truly a kind, generous, and compassionate person who was deeply loved and will be greatly missed. Sarah loved going on nature walks with her girls, especially up north. She never missed an opportunity to help someone in need regardless if they were a friend, family, or stranger. Her joy was contagious and she was the first person others were drawn to when walking into a room; she was truly a friend to everyone. Visitation Thursday 2-9pm with a 7pm Rosary at Wujek-Calcaterra & Sons, Inc., 36900 Schoenherr at Metro Parkway (16 Mile), Sterling Heights. Instate Friday 9:30am until time of 10am Mass at San Francesco Catholic Church, 22870 S. Nunneley (S. of Metro Parkway, E. of Gratiot), Clinton Township. Memorial contributions to the Regina Scholarship Fund, the San Rocco Society, or Common Ground are appreciated. Please share memories with the family at their online guestbook at WujekCalcaterra.com
