Lighting a candle for a beautiful lady who will be missed.
Sara was such a great gal. We stopped by often just to hangout & she & Burt were always doing something together or for her boys. Her family was her life. She will surely be missed. Thought & Prayers for Burt, the boys, & her entire family.
Prayers to her family and friends during this time of sadness.
Sarah was a beautiful person inside and out. There are so many memories that swarm around in my mind from scaring Larry with air horns, heart to hearts about life to the drives to and from work. She took me in and treated me like a daughter. She was always concerned for my safety on the bad roads, and went above and beyond to help me save some money by taking me to and from work. Maplewood days with Sarah were always filled with laughter and orneriness. I didn’t know everything about Sarah’s life but I knew everything about CJ & Joey’s. I didn’t know all of Sarah’s friendships and relationships but I knew a lot about she and Bert’s. She was always talking about her family. I felt like I knew them through her. She could never bring them up without a smile on her face. She would light up and you could feel her love radiate through the room. I wish I could take the pain away from you guys because Sarah would never want you to hurt, especially because of her. Her love overflowed for you three. If there is ever anything I can do, please let me know. I’ll will do everything in my power to help because I know Sarah would and while no one can ever, EVER take her place she would want you to be surrounded by love and support. We are always here. Sending you so many prayers and lots of love.
I love you Sarah. I’ll miss you. Until we meet again!
