Sarah Bug, you always greeted me with hugs and such looks of joy that I couldn't help but be happy. Your light will continue to shine through all you have touched.💜💜💜 I am sending much love to your family.

Sorry for your loss Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family 🙏 Jon Hawk Tim and Lori

I did not know Sarah personally but I am friends of Cindy & Paul Meilike in Charlotte. Her service today was heartfelt and joyous in Sarah's celebration of her life. I know if I had met her she would have become a friend. Peace and comfort to Sarah's family. God Bless Norma Arnold

Our deepest sympathy to Hawk, Jon, Lori, Tim and everyone else who loved Sarah. She was one of my all-time favorite students. More than being intelligent, she was energetic, funny and goofy. She had values that she did not hesitate in sharing or defending. She was genuine and honest in everything she did - truly a joy to be around.

We are keeping Sarah's loved ones, Jon, Hawk, Lori, and Tim in our hearts in this unimaginable time of profound grief. Sarah was a beacon of light for so many. She was bright, empathetic, fun, and joyful and will be sorely missed. Diana and Joe Parker

We are praying for Jon and Hawk, may God wrap his arms around you and comfort you.

I am shocked and incredibly saddened to hear this news. Sarah was one of my first and therefore oldest friends, and has always had a special place in my heart. From daycare, to sleepovers, to keeping in touch online, Sarah was always a true friend - one who never forgot my birthday, and who had a huge passion for chocolate chip pancakes as a child. All of my love to her, and her entire family. - Lydia (Maxwell) Nadal

Thoughts, and Prayers for Jon, Hawk, and the family. You have my deepest condolences.

Tim and Lori, Please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. I first met Sarah when I tutored her in her mathematics course at Parkland. Later she was a colleague when she worked in the Library. She was a joy to work with and always had a sunny disposition. I will miss her greatly. Take care. Omar Adawi
