There she received commendations and outstanding awards during her nursing career.

Sara was a faithful, loved and active member of the Antioch Baptist Church, North Hills, PA where she enjoyed participating in church functions and meetings. She served as the church nurse and always was there to help others.
Sara was well known for her art of cooking and her home was always open for a home cooked meal with love. Her hobbies and interests included her family, gardening, sewing and reading and she loved to travel internationally and throughout the United States.
