My greatest friend Sarah, you've been the most wonderful friend, I can't thank you enough. In the sadness of your loss I keep feeling so grateful that you've been in my life at all, few will ever know what it's like to be born with a best friend already by your side.
We were so lucky our families found each other and we knew it. Two little toe-heads laughing with our older brothers, playing with toys, running from "ghosts", loving to be together, to call each other best friend forever deep in our hearts.
You grew older but never to me. To me, you're forever suspended in those moments of pure joy as we'd pull up to your house, see you come out the door, and I'd run to hug you so tight because I never, ever wanted to leave.
Keep singing Sarah so I can hear you when I'm scared and you can comfort me like you always did my funny, wonderful friend Sarah.

What is Sarah doing standing her 5 or 6 year old self on a gun turret? It was my full-on pleasure as a mother to watch Sarah grow as she became my daughter, KT's, best friend forever. I'm not sure Sarah ever 'became', she just 'was' from birth. It could have been no greater serendipity to have landed in Bell Canyon a year before, not knowing a soul, meeting Cora and John, Cathy and Johnny. Cathy played with Sammy (my oldest) and Johnny became my son's best friend. Then, Blessings! Cora and I produced KT and Sarah within 3 months of each other and from then on, they roamed through childhood together, the most content, supportive friends I've ever seen. Their strengths and weaknesses complimented each other, their creativity together made them soar.
My heart is broken. My kids' hearts are broken. God called for Sarah, too soon, way too soon for us. Guess he just needed her to sing for Him.
All my sympathy Cathy, John, Cora, John. And all my love, Sissie

My first memory of Sarah was when I went to the Woillard home in Bell Canyon in 1984. When I saw Sarah for the first time, she was this little 4-year-old, toe-headed blonde running around barefoot in the driveway of their giant home. She was wearing a pink dress and playing with their dog Brandy. I was blessed to be a part of their family to this day but most especially as her sister Cathy and I were growing up together. I watched Sarah grow from her sweet little 4 year old self with her cute little squeaky voice into a beautiful young woman with a stunning voice and a mega-watt smile that would light up any room she was in. She was always sweet, kind, gentle, funny, brave, talented, spiritual, and loving. She didn’t know a stranger and she could make anybody feel comfortable just by being in her presence. She was a gift to all those that knew her, but especially to her family. She was a loving daughter, sister, and aunt. You will be missed beyond measure beautiful Sarah, but you have left a lifetime of treasured memories to all whose lives you’ve touched. We feel your presence and know that you are watching over us and lighting all of our ways with your beautiful, eternal smile.

I first met sweet Sarah when she came to my studio for voice lessons. I think she may just have been 16 because she drove herself. My first thought was of how brave she was to lean into conquering her goal of finding her voice. We connected heart to heart in that first session, became friends, and I’ve loved her deeply ever since. Many times I’d think of her and in that moment she’d reach out... always so full of love. I will hold her forever in my heart.

I was new to Islands in Agoura three years ago, when I met this bright, bubbly, energetic young lady. She gave me the biggest hug and welcomed me to be her little sis! We followed our journey together to Red Robin and had a ton of fun each shift! We became work buddies, sisters, and best friends. I am so blessed to have known such an amazingly sweet woman! I’m going to miss her dearly but know she’s a beautiful angel looking over for me up in Heaven! I love you Sarah so much and you’ll always be the big sis I never had! Thank you for everything and one day we will be together eating burgers and sippin our cocktails again! ❤️

Sarah and I went to elementary school for 7 years at St. Bernardines in the valley. I left after 6 grade. We reconnected in 2011 on Facebook. I was so happy to find her. In 2017 I divorced and she was divorced. I was going through a tough time and Sarah helped me get over the pain and we were dating for 4-5 months. After we broke up we would still talk and keep in touch. When we dated she would always call me her Sweet Pea. I helped her move in with her sister last August. The last time I saw Sarah was the day after she moved to her Sisters I met her at her old place in the valley and helped her clean up the place. She was so happy that I helped her. We would check in on each other. Sarah would always ask me how my dad’s health was. When we dated she loved to cook she was such a wonderful cook. She also loved to sing. She had a wonderful voice. She loved her kitties. She will be missed. I loved her so much. I would of done anything and more for her. She was such a wonderful beautiful blessing in life. Thank you Sarah for touching so many lives. You will be missed forever My Beautiful Sweet Sarah. I Love you always and forever and ever.

I’m greatly saddened to learn of Sarah’s passing. She wasn’t a close friend or anything particularly important in my life but she was a fabulous bartender at Islands, a great customer to help at Old Navy, and such a sweet girl. I last saw her two years ago and had imagined telling her about my life since I had last seen her in 2010. Rest In Peace Sweetheart.

Words just cannot describe how much Sarah blessed my life in so many ways for so many years. We had a very special connection and I will forever miss her. Sarah had a laugh that was contagious, the voice of an Angel, she was the most caring, compassionate, thoughtful person I know. We loved to cook together, watch football together, hang out together, we love our kitties and connected spirtually. Sarah would text or call and say "I dreamed about you - or I keep thinking about you, are you ok"? She truly cared about those around her and I will cherish all the beautiful memories of this beautiful soul. You will be missed dear Sarah....

I was a regular at Islands for several years. Sarah had a smile that was infectious. When my son started working there, Sarah said she would take care of him. I never doubted her for a second. My best friend Sean and I would sit at the bar after a long day and talk with her for hours. She was and always will be an amazing human being. RIP Sarah.

Sarah was the coolest chick, a best friend, and an extraordinary human being full of love and light... we shared so so so many laughs, the kind of laughing that always ended in tears... so many times in this last week i have remembered all the things about you, about us, about all the good times and mostly about the laughter and i am so very blessed to have been able to call you friend... thank you for making my life so much richer.

Sarah and I lived off of Ventura Boulevard for the majority of what became the last two years of her life. When I first moved in, she took me to the corner bar, got me drunk, and told me she was a psychic medium. I instantly knew she was batshit crazy and totally cooler than me. She said my spirit guide was a sassy gay guy. That my future husband’s name was Jonathan... or was it Jeremy? That I would have a son... or two? Or three? Definitely all boys. She was a big sister to me. When I had no family, she invited me to Christmas. When I had no boyfriend, she invited me to Galentine’s Day. When Armand came over, she looked me in the eyes and said that if I ever got accidentally pregnant, she would raise the child with me. And she meant it. No one says shit like that. We laughed at stupid Adam Sandler movies. We splurged money on cable in the era of streaming, and fumed over the phone with Spectrum. Our biggest argument was over wildfire evacuation when we never even needed to evacuate at all. When I needed my gallbladder removed, she agreed without hesitation to drive me to and from surgery, and wait in-between. When I needed to move, she drove the van down Sunset Boulevard. And at the end of that day, she said I was the freest person she knew. She’s the freest person I know.

I don’t know that I will ever really believe that you’re gone, because you’ve existed in my heart nearly my whole life.
My best friend from kindergarten passed away two days ago. Many of you also consider her a best friend. How special a person to touch so many people, and how lucky we are to have had her in our lives.
Sarah taught me about astrology, junk food, and how to crimp and curl hair. We were constantly creating. Choreographing. Telling stories into a voice recorder and playing it back in fast forward. We had a secret handshake. We would pretend we were Wayne and Garth. I did my first face mask with Sarah and I remember it because that was the moment I realized I have a small forehead. Sarah took me to my first Dodger game, which happened to be the night of the LA riots. I was standing in Sarah’s front yard when we found out Tupac died, and I was with her the night Princess Diana died too. We used to cruise the entire stretch of Ventura Blvd and back. She had the best parties, slumber or otherwise.
Sarah introduced me to the Ouija board,MAC cosmetics, Kevin Aucoin, Silvia Brown, Days of Our Lives, South Park, Friendster, and Taco Bell’s crunch wrap supreme. We both did musicals in high school but she’s the one who could actually sing. She took me to see Tori Amos.
I would make videos based on her poems. We took the time to learn all the lyrics of Bulls on Parade. Our last collab were the headshots I took of her before I moved to Hong Kong. She did her own hair and makeup but let me style her (in Kristin’s clothes). It’s some of my best work.
We rallied for you in your last hours. Your friends are connecting and reconnecting and sharing stories and the love is strong.
The last thing I said to you was I’ve never been more proud. I wish your last journey could have come to fruition (it is Nurses Week after all) but it’s ok, you already did so much.
Im greedy and everyday I ask for a visit, and you came. Since we’re here I’ll ask for a few more things. Please help us all find some peace with your loss, especially your family. Please look out for us because right now is such a weird time. Please come see me again and tell me stories and make me laugh.
