Sarah, my Grease singing partner, my younger cousin. I will never forget all the times we shared together. Swimming at the 4th of July picnics with all our families. You will be missed. I know you are in a place now that is at peace. Love you cousin. RIP.

Sarah ...I will always remember you as my little cousin running after us chasing fireflies, or singing Grease songs with Marc, and playing the piano beautifully, halloween at Onna and Pip's and visits to Santa's Village. And then later on when you got your first apt. and calling me up to come fix issues you had so the landlord wouldn't try and charge you for them to be fixed....It's sad that life challenges some in ways that causes them to struggle for many years and I know for many years you struggled, and although it saddens me to think of your passing, I know that Onna was waiting for you at the pearly gates with her arms wide open to hug you close and bring you in to see all our loved ones who have gone before us, and you can be free of this world and happy once again.Rest in peace Sarah...and safe journey!!!
Love your big cousin Russ
