Sarah Colony Obituary
August 18, 1949 - December 22, 2024
A few months have passed since the publication of the original obituary for Sarah Elizabeth Strauss Colony, whose untimely death on December 22, 2024, left us with a large void in our hearts and homes. The Celebration of Life event has now been scheduled. Please join her family and numerous friends Saturday, May 31, 2025, 2:00-5:00 p.m. at the Webster Hills United Methodist Church, Christian Life Center, 1333 W. Lockwood Ave., Webster Groves, MO. The remembrance sharing will commence around 3:30 p.m. A RSVP is requested but not required to attend this celebration of Sarah's wonderful life. Please respond if you can by May 19 to 314-973-3554. We hope you'll join us in remembering our sweet, funny, wise and supportive wife, sister, aunt and friend. In lieu of flowers please consider a contribution in Sarah's memory to PBS Channel 9, 3655 Olive St., St. Louis MO 63108 or to Webster Hills United Methodist Church, 698 W. Lockwood, St. Louis MO 63119.

I knew Sarah as a fun and giving person who endured her troubles with the kind of grace that should be a model for the rest of us.
