Sara welcomed her first grandchild, Maci Jo in May of 2012, and is expecting her first grandson on October 28, 2022. Sara was trained to be a CNA and a Pharmacy Technician and worked at the Nowata Nursing Home and Cherokee Nation. Sara was always “the life of the party”. She was always smiling and was the person everyone wanted to be friends with. If you were friends with Sara or even close, you knew she was a caretaker and had a beautiful soul that radiated inside and out. Sara loved going to the lake, shopping, and spending time with her friends and family. Sara accomplished many things in her life, but her biggest accomplishment was being the best Mother, the mother she always wanted and dreamed of being.
