Sarah brought smiles, sunshine and wisdom into the lives of her family, friends and everyone who was fortunate enough to know her. Her positive attitude and sweet ways permeated every part of her life. She warmly greeted those around her with a smile, a kind word and an inquiry about the others' family. Sarah emulated her mother whom she admired and loved. In her family home she learned to nurture, encourage and support her family in their personal lives and careers. She was a superb cook and baker, skills she learned from her mother. Her roast chicken, cheese knishes and apple pie are legendary. Family and Judaism were strong values in her life. She brought her family together often for wonderful Shabbat and holiday dinners. She will be missed by all who have known her, but the loss will be greatest amongst those who love her.
