[NFBWV-Talk] For those who knew her.

[David Allen]

Hi Charlene!

Thanks for sharing this.

Ironically, I was thinking of her just a couple days ago.

In my early years, she was the cook everyone liked. Later, she became a
houseparent, and always had a kind word as we occasionally crossed paths. 

I never understood those that unintentionally said her name was Sarah
Chaser.

Cheers,
Dave

I want to thank Karen Swauger for sharing the below obituary for Sarah
Cheshire:



My memories:  I remember Sarah as a daytime houseparent at different times
for both the little girls and then for the little boys.  Some say they
remember her working as a cook and later as a night houseparent.  I really
liked her and admired her for how she interacted with the little kids and
took them outside to play.  Charlene
