"Bobby, Laura, Julia, so sorry to hear of Sabra's passing. What a beautiful (and quick-witted) soul she was. Some of my funniest memories from high school involved piling into her little VW bug and driving around UT. Peace to you and God Bless."

"Sabra reminded me so much of her mother. I had contact with her when she was interested in buying a home on Pamela Lane. I had dinner with her mom and dad and enjoyed visiting with them. I visited Sabra at her home in North Knoxville. It was so great to see your family again. Her infectious smile and quick wit will be missed by many. "
