Cindy, Joe, Anna and Joey,
Sara was such a bright light in our family and we miss her every day. There are no words to console you; but always remember how much she loved all of you; she spoke of you with so much love in her voice; you made her a caring, beautiful person.

Dear Gaser family,
I just want to say that it was nice knowing Sara at La Roche. She sat next to me in basic mathematics and always barrowed penciles from me. She was so smart and knew that math so much better than I did. She will be missed by our class and the P.I. Students. May you rest in the hands of the lord forever.

Love Vince DeChellis

One thing I am certain of is there is no greater pain on this earth than to lose a child. I pray that God will shed his compassion and mercy on the two of you in the future in her absence, and may each sunrise shed God's healing light upon you both. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
