What a beautiful obituary and a beautiful Picture.
I WILL TREASURE IT FOREVER.
I’ve known Sarah most all my life. She was such a sweet lady who loved the Lord. She is the mother of
Janean, my sister (in-law) who is one of my favorite people. It was a pleasure to know Sarah. I will miss her.
Nate and family, sorry for your lose and you and your family will be in our prayers.
The Brennan Family
You all have composed a most beautiful and befitting memorial to your mother. This video has stirred my childhood memories and has continued to affirm my belief in the goodness of the Lord and the love of our family. Sarah Jean was a wonderful Christian woman who was an example to me. She was a loving aunt.
Sarah’s Rich and Wonderful life filled with family. Lloyd and Sarah always together. God bless Lloyd and the Parker family, as they set out on a new journey; having lost the family matriarch.
Lloyd and Sarah have been our next door neighbors for over 26 years. She was a lovely lady always with a smile. I will miss seeing you.
