A memorial service took place at noon Saturday, Dec. 30 at Aldersgate United Methodist Church, 8320 South St. in Lincoln. Sara was passionate about social justice and peace issues because she wanted a better world for her three children whom she so loved. She served on the Nebraska Foster Care Review Board during her early years in Lincoln. She was active in the church all her life, including Aldersgate United Methodist Church for the last quarter century where she valued the community-focused atmosphere. More recently, she took strong action in support of Nebraskans Against Gun Violence. Friends and family valued her for her honesty, humor, compassion, and open-mindedness.

She was a social media coordinator for MilkWorks for the past 17 years, as well as a MilkWorks International Board Certified Lactation Consultant in 2001-present. After experiencing breastfeeding issues with her first born child, the help she received from La Leche League inspired her to become a lactation consultant and state and national leader for La Leche League International from 1999 to 2013.
