To Sara's family, I send my thoughts and prayers as I did Sara's hair for several years and knew her quite well not only as a client but a friend. She was a special lady and cared deeply for her family. I would always go to see her villages at Christmas and I gave her a teapot that fit in her japanese bedroom. Once you knew Sara ,you could never forget her .

We will all miss you. You were more than an aunt to all of us, more like the second mom that lived down the street. Now you can be that special sister to Mom again.
