Dear Ora, Victor, Michelle, Ron and your entire family, I’m so sorry to hear of the passing of Sara. I’m sure that, not just for myself, but others, it came as a complete shock. Your mother/grandmother was an exceptional woman with many talents. She has left you with so many special memories, one being the Fashion Show, that you can cherish for a life time. My heart is with you during this difficult time.

Dear family Heartbreaking. Sarah took a mother role, when mine is so far away. The chance encounter between the two women, Sarah and my mother Yvonne, after so many years was a found treasure for me, as I got to know your amazing mother and grandmother. Always caring, always giving, including me in family celebrations and holidays, checking up on me often and ....the star of my recipe book....so many desserts that have SARAH in their title; Sarah's Pesach Sesame squares....Sarah's Napoleon....Sarah's Gurabieh. I am thankful for her, and having her in my life . Sending you my love and deepest condolences, and knowing that you will always be surrounded by her love. Love, Shoshie

Please accept my sincere condolences.....Sarah was a wonderful person. Her cooking, baking and knitting was know by everyone. I once asked her for a recipe and she just read it out to me by heart. It took up 3 pages of my daily planner book. When her grandchildren and great grandchildren stood up there at Steeles Memorial and each one read about how special their Safta was to them, it brought tears to my eyes. I am privileged to have know her and she will never be forgotten.
