In Loving Memory of

Sarah Lambert

* 23rd March 2022 *

As our Compliance & Assurance Manager, Sarah was a much-loved colleague and friend at Lowell Solicitors and Overdales Legal, where she had worked since 2016.  This Memorial Book was opened to allow colleagues to express our grief at losing Sarah so unexpectedly but also to share the many happy times, fond memories and privilege of knowing her.  Sarah was universally well liked and was respected by all, she was kind, witty and a joy to know. We will miss her and we won’t forget.

Our heart-felt condolences go to Sarah’s family and friends, who are invited to share their thoughts and memories here too, to create a trove of treasured memories for all who loved her to cherish and draw strength from.

Whilst our hearts are breaking we feel so incredibly proud of the beautiful young lady you had become Sarah. Inspired by all the hearts you touched along the way, your kindness to others, and having the strength to do what you wanted to do. You captured all our hearts the day you entered our lives and our love for you grew stronger each and every day. Your gorgeous smile will stay in our hearts forever alongside the precious memories we have growing up with a convoy of trips to the coast, rounders by the river and family get togethers. A special memory which I will always hold very dear Sarah is you inviting me to see Blood Brothers with you at the Alhambra. What an emotional roller coaster that was, with me trying to hold back the tears as I was the grown up, but loved every precious minute of it and in turn passed my love of this production on to Emma all thanks to you. My tears were not held back when you left us Sarah as each one that falls is filled with love for the memories and the precious time we had sharing your life…

Sarah, I’ve tried to write this many times over and I’m still not quite sure how, or where to start but I’m going to try my best to keep this as dry as your sense of humour – fabulous and refreshing! Also, I know that is what you would want and expect from me. I have so many great memories it’s hard to put into words just even a few of those, but it brings comfort to know that they are all ones that make me laugh. Some so funny it brought tears to my eyes and gave me instant abs! I knew we would be become friends from the off, mainly because of our passion for the English language and the use of it……. (I’ll leave that there) But the big spark that ignited our friendship was our secret [not so] love for trash tv. I searched for someone who shared my passion for The Real Housewives and who knew, it was you! I enjoyed spending my down time discussing the drama over a bottle of wine with you – amongst many other topics but I’ll keep those between us.   It was only last week were getting…

I was so very sad to hear this news. You were warm, friendly, approachable and always keen to understand, to learn and to do the right thing. Your lasting legacy will be the impact you had on everyone around you, and your family should be so very proud. You’ll be missed Sarah, may you rest in peace….

Words cant really begin to say the sadness we feel right now for the loss of such an amazing person in Sarah. She were great at what she did, but she was also a great person to be around. Sarah ws fundamental in shaping what you see today at Overdales and we will continue to flourish in your memory to do her proud. She will be sorely missed and never forgotten. RIP Sarah. Jonny x…

Im sure like many others I have started to write, delete and re-type countless times now. Its extremely difficult to put in to words how we all feel about losing Sarah. She was extremely funny, some of her one liners i still chuckle to now, she was kind, easy to talk to and just really nice person!!!  Sarah was great at her job and was our ‘go to’ for anything compliance based and that seems to be the trend across the company. My fondest memory was our training session together in which the facilitator had us in hysterics frequently using an ackronym that we associated with something completely different and extremely rude  ha, we laughed about that for months after and im smiling thinking about it now. My thoughts and condolences go to your family, i cant fathom what they going through. You really were a ‘good un’, Sarah, RIEP xxx…

I was saddended to hear the passing of our wonderful colleague Sarah. What a bright, funny lady she was. Working closely with Sarah and her team as a floor supervisor and then in my role as a Legal Quality Analyst, I learnt very quickly that Sarah knew our company inside and out and got things done. I remember when we went to an escape room and to the pub for some food. At the time I was pregnant so I wasn’t able to drink but we still had the best time together with MANY laughs. It really broke my heart hearing that we have lost Sarah, she really was so kind and such a loveable character. Her life was taken away from us all too soon, however it seems Sarah was needed for other plans in another life and that comforts me. Rest easy Sarah, lots of love angel. …

I keep starting to write then stopping and starting again. I still cannot believe it. I keep expecting you to pop up on our teams chat with some witty comment to the team that has us in stiches. So I am not going to overthink it and just go for it … Sarah you really were the best manager and an amazing friend too. You had a knack of knowing how to lighten the mood in any room or conversation but you really didn’t know you were doing it. I really wish that you did but then you might have approached things differently and it may not have gone quite the same way. One example is when I was not very well, and at a low ebb. I had told you the situation and messaged you the next morning that I wouldn’t be in work as I wasn’t feeling too good. You responded with the following strange words of wisdom that had me crying with laughter ‘ It’s all a bit **** right now, but why not cheer yourself up and watch Game of Thrones. It is extreme and will definitely distract you from life in general’ You are the…

I remember when we first met at our previous company – you became my manager suddently and shortly after i started. Even though you didnt know each of us at that point, you still took the time to comfort us whilst on redundancy notice. When you left the business at that point- I thought I would never get to see such a strong admirable and career driven woman again. But fate had a way and I joined you at Lowell after a couple of years or so. You are the epitome of hard work and you work for what is right. We owe you some much – I myself learned so much from you – you were always ready to help me with any question I had, you made me see things outside of the box and you always had a good laugh with us. Our most recent case we worked on together, you gave me so many words of encouragment and i will forever treasure them. I wish I could be hald the person you are. You are an amazing person and role model and my heart will forever be with you and your family. Rest easy now…

Not everyone is great at their job. But Sarah was. Not everyone I work with, is someone I’m always glad to see – but Sarah was. Not everyone I work with, feels like they’ve become a friend I might like to know outside work, or keep in touch with if either of us left. But Sarah was. When the day’s busy or tough, and the phone rings for the fourteenth time and I can see who’s calling, it’s not everyone whose call I always want to take. But I’d always want to take Sarah’s. Because one way or another, she’d make me smile, and one way or another, even though it was in the nature of both our jobs that anything we needed to speak about was probably tricky and demanding and awkward and just more work, Sarah still had that gift – I’d still be glad she called and glad I picked the phone up. I can only begin – perhaps not even begin – to know the feelings of those who did know her outside work, or were closer to her than I, in the end, had the opportunity or privilege to become. But I’m deeply, deeply sad and sorry to lose Sarah,…

Like everyone who knew her, i was shocked and saddened to hear of Sarah’s passing. I had known Sarah for a number of years and spent alot of time with her as part of the LSL Thrive team. Sarah was an amazing asset to both Thrive and the business. Sarah had incredible ability and certainly knew how to get the job done. Nothing was ever too much trouble and the support that Sarah gave not just to me over the years but all those around her was second to none. Her personality and wit were something else too and she could sure make us laugh. I was priveliged to have known you Sarah. My sincere condolences to your colleagues, friends and family. You will always be missed. RIP…

Just like everyone else, I can’t believe I am actually writing this. I still can’t believe you have left us, heaven has been blessed with an angel who will I’m sure be giving everyone “what for”!  I have known you for so many years and we bonded from the start. I remember our last few conversations about my daughter and the wise words you gave me. The panicked teams meeting when I thought she had gone missing and the ideas we discussed to track her whereabouts. We laughed a lot about what I was like as a totally overprotective mama.  I will miss our chats about all things random from food to K pop!  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  Rest in Peace friend.  Nags…

Sarah, first of all I want to say thank you. Thank you for being the best manager and also friend, thank you for believing in me and making me believe in myself, for making the whole team laugh till we cried and thank you for just being you. In my interview for the LPRA role, straight away you made a joke that put me at ease and I told you and Lauren after that it felt like I was being interviewed by Ant and Dec. I loved your sense of humour, so dark and witty. Some of the conversations with had on our meetings with me, you and Yvette definitely need to stay between us but they are some of my fondest memories of you. During the first lockdown, we had some funny nights all in fancy dress (the pic attached is what I took of you from one of them) and especially on your birthday when we all dressed up as your favourite things and you had no idea, I keep seeing your face when you saw us all in my head and smiling.  I don’t think I will ever get over that you are gone, but I…
