Nikki — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 14:56:01 +0000

Memorial Services will be held on Sunday, November 15th at 3:30pm at the Cremation Society of the South, Marietta Chapel. Following the service there will be a reception held in honor of Sara at the Indian Hills Country Club from 5pm to 7pm. NFDC members are welcome at both ceremonies; the memorial service is expected to be standing room only.

Instead of flowers, the family asks that remembrances of Sara be made either to the Atlanta Ronald McDonald House Charities, The Atlanta Humane Society, or Georgia Equine Rescue League.

If you wish to send condolences directly to the family, please contact NFDC directly for the address (nfdramaclub at gmail dot com).
