Sarah Jane Threet

Sarah Drinnon Threet, a vibrant soul whose laughter was as colorful as her oil paintings, embarked on her final adventure on October 2, 2025, at the Paris Regional Medical Center. Born on June 4, 1960, in Hugo, Oklahoma, Sarah's life was a canvas of joy, creativity, and love, a masterpiece that would make even the Mona Lisa crack a smile.
Sarah's journey began in the humble town of Hugo, but her spirit was too big to be contained by geographical borders. Her zest for life was infectious, and she carried it with her as she traveled the country with family, working as a contractors. Together, they weren't just building structures; they were constructing memories, one laugh at a time.
Not one to settle down for long, Sarah and her family took a detour into the hospitality industry, owning a motel in Colorado. Guests didn't just check in; they were welcomed into Sarah's extended family, often leaving with a hand-sewn souvenir or a snapshot of her latest scenic painting. Her creativity wasn't just a hobby; it was a way of life.
Sarah's Christian faith was the compass that guided her through life's twists and turns. She painted her belief with broad strokes of kindness and a palette of compassion, touching the lives of everyone she met. Her son, Michael Trantham of Sawyer, Oklahoma, inherited her adventurous spirit, while her sister, Angela Drinnon, also of Sawyer, and siblings Tammy Ragan of Milburn, Oklahoma, Robbi James of Homerville, Georgia, Mary Mclean of Sweethome, OR, Sandy Monreal of Overbrook OK, Jan Drinnon of Sweethome, OR, Penny Allen of OKC, OK, brother, Joseph Drinnon of Ardmore, OK; Along with her four grandchildren and three great-grandchildren, will carry on Sarah's legacy of laughter and love. They are the living portraits of her affection, each with a touch of her artistic flair. Sarah was greeted in the afterlife by her welcoming committee: her mother, Carol Cochran, her father, Joe Drinnon, and her sisters, Carrie Byrd and Joleen Barrett, who had the kettle on and the paintbrushes ready for her arrival.
Sarah's life was a collection of beautiful pictures, not just on canvas but in the hearts of those she met. She was loving, creative, and adventurous-a true renaissance woman in a world that often settles for the mundane. Her interests and hobbies were as varied as the shades on her palette, but the true masterpiece was the life she lived, a life that was nothing short of a work of art.
As we bid farewell to Sarah Threet, let's not mourn the blank canvas she leaves behind but celebrate the vibrant tapestry she has woven into our lives. Her story doesn't end here; it's simply an intermission before the grand unveiling of her next exhibition in the great beyond. Sarah, take a bow; your audience is standing, clapping, and laughing through their tears.
