I was shocked and saddened to hear of Sarah Jane's passing. Her smile and laughter radiated warmth and joy, and she was always a giving and caring colleague. I had the privilege of working with her at the Des Moines Art Center for a number of years. My heart goes out to all who are mourning her passing. May you be comforted in your loss and may she rest in peace.

My heart is broken. Sarah Jane was so full of life. I saw her on her wedding anniversary only a few months ago and am so glad I did. She was always so happy to see me and made me feel so loved. She had that gift. I know how much she loved her family and I am so sorry you have to go on without her. I will pray for her safe travels in the next world. Happy Trails, sister.
