Sarah graduated from Southern State College (now Southern Arkansas University) and worked for many years as the Finance Secretary at Second Baptist Church in Little Rock.

She loved her LORD and Savior, playing with her grandkids, and great-grandkids, napping with her dogs and grand-dogs, gardening, crossword puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, and reading books. She will be greatly missed by those whose lives she so greatly enhanced and influenced. She truly was a Proverbs 31 woman. Pay it forward. Celebration of Life at Retta Baptist Church, Burleson, Texas.
