Sorry to hear of your loss. I never knew Sara, but I knew Whitey. Always thought that she had to be a strong woman. Guess she was to nurture all her children.
Sincerely,

To all the Durborow children and family prayers for strength on your loss.
Sarah was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother. Her presence here on earth will be
missed. She is now In The arms of our Lord Jesus Christ and surrounded by all who have went before her.
May you find peace in that she is no longer suffering.
