A very special thank you to Dr. Buddy Smith-Vaniz and his entire staff. Also thank you to her hospice and home health care professionals.
Not only was Sarah a true southern woman of grace and dignity, she was a devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister and grandmother. Fiercely protective of the one thing she loved most in this world, her family.
