I was proud to be a member of Sarah's family, being married to her daughter for 16 years. She loved her God, her husband - L.W. Youmans and her two children - Warren and Poullain. And she played a MEAN piano!! She had a tough time physically during her last few years, but she is no doubt in peace now, re-united with her husband and her parents- Dan-Dan and PaPa. God bless her and keep her with HIM for eternity.
