She was a passionate animal lover and we never knew when the next stray cat or dog would be brought into the home. In fact, we would not have our dog Chief (a rescue dog) if it wasn’t for Sarah. Chief, who we now cherish even more, as he symbolizes her compassion for all creatures.
His long legs, endless enthusiasm and abundant affection are all reminders of our Sarah. She was a lover of all wild life, whether it walked, crawled or slithered (snakes were her favorite). Sarah was very involved in the Belfast addiction recovery community.
She helped and was helped by many members of that community. She attended countless meetings and for a period spoke to women at the women’s prison during their meetings. Sarah had years of sobriety (clean time) and periods of weakness, but always returned to her recovery community to regain her foothold on the life she cherished, that of motherhood and family.
It is a real comfort to her family and friends to know that it wasn’t her illness that took her life, but that she was on her way to perform an act of kindness for a friend. Sarah was a daughter, sister, mom, and a friend. She will be dearly missed by her daughter Sophia Nolting, Sophia’s father Nate, Nate’s family and Kate, his loving partner.
