Sharyn and family, I only met Sara twice, both only for a brief moment. Yet my perception of her happen through my taste and smell senses. All stories about delicious foods, pastries, and cakes she always made activated multiple senses. Every recipe from Sara was most delicious, and so her legacy (with Sharyn's talent of adding the right quantities) is spread beyond her family. And of course the best story about PETRUZILIYA puts a big smile on, whatever the situation!!! May Sara be remembered in your hearts as the nourishing, loving Ema and Savta and may her memory bring you together as a family! Karina

Dearest Wallach family, I'm completely heartbroken for you all. As you all know, Sarah (and your father) were a great part of my life growing up. Sarah was such a pleaser, always cooking her way to your heart. I know she suffered from so many physical ailments throughout her years but she always had a huge smile on her face and a word of optimism when I would see her. She gushed with pride about all of her children and grandchildren. You were her greatest source of joy. May her blessed soul and memory fill your hearts. Sending love and Strength. xo

Sara's beauty as a person is still alive in her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. When any of them make a festive meal that is delicious and comforting it is her spirit saying "don't forget me." I will miss her calling me every birthday and visiting her during holiday times and simchas. I hope that her family and friends will only feel happiness when they think of her.

We are so sorry to hear of Sara's passing. Sara and Menachem were friends of my parents and I always enjoyed speaking with them at our home. They were very special people and such a comfort to have around for my mother during my father's illness and passing. You could always count on them. May your great memories bring you much comfort and joy during this very difficult time and may her soul be bound up in the bonds of eternal life.

Dear Sharyn, I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Your dear mom......I was fortunate to know her and call her Mrs. Wallach back when we were 12....and then to know her and call her Sara, in her later years, meeting her again through you and then having the pleasure and privilege to celebrate with her and you and her and her friends at Cafe Europa . You have been an extremely loving and caring and dedicated daughter to her. May her memory forever be a blessing and may you all find peace and strength during this difficult time. Sending condolences from our family, to you and your entire family. xoxoxoxo
