I am so sorry to learn of Sara's passing. I remember when she and Billy Joe were teenagers. Her Mother worked at B C Moore's with my Mother. Then when she was a young adult, she taught me in high school. She was a great lady and very smart. I used to see her when we both were getting our mail from the postoffice. We always exchanged friendly smiles and Hellos. Our families had been friends for our entire lives. I will miss her and so will anyone who knew her.
