What a blessing she is…I will miss her smile and kind heart. Much love to the family during this time. May you have comfort…
Delmar, we are so sorry to hear of your loss. You may not recognize our two names together. Marilyn was married to Dan Reynolds. I lost Dan and Richard lost his wife Janet. We have been married almost ten years now. May you be comforted by your sweet memories of your wonderful wife Sarah. Marilyn and Rich Holman
I was very surprised to hear of Sarah’s passing! I know Delmar, that she was the love of your life, and the center of your world. And rightly so, she was a great lady. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time and through the days and weeks to come.
Sarah was one of the first persons I met after moving to Richland 32 years ago. I felt so alone and was very far from home. Her laugh, smile and inclusive soul felt like ‘home’. I have always loved her for that feeling she shared with me. I will miss her. Her family, our neighbors, all hold a special place in our hearts. We pray for your comfort and peace as her passing is mourned.
We are so sorry for your loss. She will be missed! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and we pray you feel peace and His love as you navigate through the following days!
We’re so sorry that Sarah has left you. She was a dear person. Our love and prayers are with all the Yearsley family! Ken and Margaret Petersen
We love you and your family, dear Sarah, and are thankful for the 44 years of friendship we have shared. May peace and comfort be with your loved ones as they mourn your loss. Families are forever..
The Savior made it so.
I am so sorry for your loss. The Yearsley family was a safe space in my childhood. Sarah was like a second mother to me back then. I loved listening to her advise and took her words to heart.
Prayers go out to Delmar losing his beloved wife. Prayers for peace in the hearts of her children and grandchildren, friends and community who need comfort. Amen.
