I only met and spoke Sarah Elizabeth once in real life and followed her life achievements till the end. What I observed was a uniquely courageous, principled and hard thinking fighter who created a lifetime worth of happiness in her short and original life. She made every remaining minute count.
She will always be an inspiration for me. I'm glad Sarah Elizabeth existed.

Her courage and her legacy will inspire others to live their fullest lives. Thank you, Sarah, for your light and your love for our community.
