Sarah loved to travel with her family and photographed everything from A to Z wherever she went. She loved to read books and to keep a very detailed journal. Sarah was a very sweet and loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother and an endearing friend to all she met. She was gracious, warm and a joy to be with. She loved the color purple, flowers, and piecing together puzzles on the back porch.
