Joe, Amy, and family:
We are so sorry to hear about the passing of Sarah. I know that her faith was great and you can rest assured she is now with Jesus. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love & God Bless, Rick and Ginny
Sarah was such an amazing person. I met her at mops and our daughters were in preschool together as well. We were in group together as well. She was so kind and caring, I am lucky to have gotten to know her. Her faith was so inspiring. Many prayers to her husband and children.
I love this picture of Sarah and her smile is what I remember. It didn’t matter what she was going through, she was always smiling. She truly loved her family and I think wanted her kids to remember her this way.
We are so sorry for you loss but rejoice with you in knowing that Sarah is with Jesus! No more tears, no more pain! Please know we pray for the peace only God can give and beautiful memories of you time together. God bless your family!
I met Sarah in Mops in Ohio. Sarah was a blessing to our group. I am so glad I had the chance to know her. Her faith and courage are an inspiration. May god give you comfort during this time. I will continue to pray for all of you.
Our deepest sympathies to all of you at this time… our prayers will continue for comfort and strength through the coming days. Sarah’s sweetness will be missed, and her strength and faith will continue to be our inspiration.
Here is a little poem I wrote in memory of her.
An Angels Mission
The mission of an Angel
Could simply be to let you know
That softly blowing quiet winds
Can touch the very soul
As Angels ride upon the flow
Of winds from heavens hold
Surrounding you with memories
And love that they still hold
For whose to say, that very wind
Might hold your loved ones soul
Returning oh so often
To surround you in their fold
So stand and face the breezes
With loving thoughts held tight
And thank God for his blessings
As your Angel is in flight
by Rita M. Mahler
So sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers
Our deepest sympathy to the family of Sarah Boleratz.
God Bless
Scott and Steph Shipton

Uncle Boy and Aunt Paula
Sending my deepest sympathy Amy and Joe. So sorry to hear about Sarah’s passing.
To the Family of Sarah Boleratz
I am sorry for your loss. Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today. 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 reminds us that God is always there to comfort us. I pray this helps you to find solace.
We are so sorry for your loss. We pray that God will give you His beauty, for the ashes, His joy, for your mourning, and His garment of praise, instead of heaviness. Our daughter Beth Ivanic has been very blessed by her friendship with Sarah, a true sisterhood in the Lord. Please know that you are and will be in our prayers as you walk through this valley of the shadow of death. Our God is with you! In the love of Christ, Gordon and Edwina Valentine
I am very sorry for your loss. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
Boleratz Family,
I am extremely sorry to hear about Sarah’s passing. What a beautiful and amazing young woman. Please find strength and comfort in the scriptures at a very difficult time. The Bible promises us that we will have the opportunity to see those lost in death again in the near future. Revelation 21: 3, 4 states, “With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
With deepest sympathy,
Shannon
