Dear Friends, As many of you may know, Sara’s beloved mom, Brenda, has passed away after a courageous battle with Primary Progressive Aphasia. During this incredibly challenging time, Sara has been a devoted caregiver, and now it’s our turn to support her and envelop her in the love she deserves. I thought it would be helpful to create a way for all of us to show our affection and support for Sara, whether we are near or far. Sara deeply values the time she spends with her friends and family, so I encourage everyone who can to visit her. If visiting isn’t feasible, I know that a thoughtful phone call or a heartfelt text would mean the world to her. In times like these, we often feel a strong desire to be there for those we care about, yet may be unsure how to express that. My hope is that this initiative will help connect Sara with her community during this difficult time. Please feel free to share this message with anyone who knows and loves her. For those at ADSB, I will also be organizing a shared visiting schedule, so please keep an eye on both this message and the shared document for updates. Sara cherishes her loved ones and the moments shared together. If you could reach out to her and perhaps spend some time with her instead of sending large meals, I believe it would be incredibly helpful and appreciated. As a small note, Sara enjoys a dark roast coffee with two oat milks and has a soft spot for butter tarts. If you plan to visit, please send her a quick text beforehand to ensure she’s up for company. Thank you all for your kindness and support for Sara during this profoundly difficult time. Your love and presence mean so much. With gratitude, Sarah Mansfield
