FATIMA
Dear Sarah, Words are not enough…This world was too small for such a big heart, you had to be part of the universe so you can be everywhere and surround this earth with your presence and your light. Those who had the chance to know you down here are privileged and I feel extremely fortunate and honoured to be one of them. Your kindness, your sweetness, your brightness will be terribly missed but you will stay in our hearts forever. My deepest condolences to your family and closest friends. May the memory of your smile, your energy and your love help them to overcome this terrible ordeal….

Dearest Sarah It is with a terribly heavy heart that I write this message. In fact for some weeks I have avoided it in the hope this would all turn out to be some bad dream, as soon as I heard this awful news, I called you in the hope it might be some terrible misunderstanding and that you’d answer. As you know we are on our big trip at the moment, I would have been telling you so much of it and keeping you updated with our photos. I would have told you how amazing the stars are here, last night I stared at them thinking of you. I would have told you how the kids are faring and where we are heading to next. You would have told me the latest developments in your life, about the progress on your apartment renovations or how good the surf was at the weekend. It’s really quite amazing that we only spent max two short months in the same country and yet we had such a strong friendship. It is a testament to what a beautiful person you are, your soft, fun, open nature allowed us to…

Sarah, I saw this quote below from Ruth Ginsberg and thought of you “To make life a little better for people less fortunate than you, that’s what I think a meaningful life is. One lives not just for oneself but for one’s community.”20 Sept 2020 Yours was a short but a meaningful life–you will be missed. I feel privileged to have known you. My condolences to your family.

Sarah, you will be truly missed by all of us here at Vitol. Always willing to help, never outwardly flustered, positive , pragmatic. Aside from dealing with the next most pressing legal issue that we presented you with, in your patient, thoughtfully and diligent way, you always had a moment to spare a thought for or reflect on an event involving those around you, and were never shy to help. It was great to hear about your adventures, unique and brave ! My heart goes out to your family and your friends as you have left a massive chasm that only time , good memories, and their love will fill. …

Dear Sarah, You will be missed terribly by everyone who knew you. You were a bright light amongst us, shining positivity and unconditionally offered your help to anyone that needed it. In these difficult times my thoughts and prayers are with your family. I will greatly miss you….

Some people are just made this way. Busy, yet approachable. Clever, yet modest. Efficient, yet good fun to be around! The vast outpourring of praises is just a sample of how people really appreciated working with you. Your parents, friends and family must be proud – and they should! RIP Sarah….

Sarah you were truly one in a million. When you first walked into the London legal team with a look screaming east London I knew there was something special about you. I will miss your various hats and pictures of people wearing sandals on London transport in winter! I will also save my Sarah playlist which has every song that you have introduced me to over the past years. The nao concert, followed by lovebox afterparty with chris and Jamie or the various bike races in rotterdam is how I will remember you. I’m a better person for having met you and will miss a very important soundboard in you. Love always Valentine. …

Whilst I had not known Sarah for the longest time she made a huge impression on me when I joined Vitol. I loved her energy and her quirky dress sense, we had many conversations about both claims and shoes! Sarah was beautiful, incredibly talented, respected by everyone and it was a pleasure to be in her company. My deepest condolences to her family and friends, I hope the beautiful tributes in this book give you some small solace. Jane xx…

I couldn’t believe my luck when I was asked to be your secretary, I knew it was going to be fun, fun, fun and it was! A day didn’t go by when we laughed about something, your honesty through humour was a talent, which you had in abundence in every walk of life – I’m proud to say you were my friend. So kind, so caring, so beautiful inside and out. You will be missed. Sleep tight pretty angel x…

Dear Sarah I remember you as a trainee who flourished and developed into a wonderful associate during your time at Reed Smith. I am still finding it so surreal that I spoke to you two weeks before your passing and you sounded so full of life. You expressed how much you were enjoying working at Vitol and being a mentor for the charity, You Make It, who valued your assistance so much. You will always be missed by everyone who had the good fortune to know you, including myself. Taken too soon but will never be forgotten! Much love Carole xx …

Sarah, I will always be grateful for your friendship and support during my secondment and over the years since.

Simply a really lovely person, always positive and happy to help with a smile, a laugh and a huge amount of human warmth. A joy to work and spend time with who will be sorely missed by all. Thoughts are with the family and friends left behind….

Sarah was an incredible individual. She loved her job , and she thrived at doing the best for the company . As have many have mentioned one of her greatest attributes was being able to do that in an enthusiastic and positive way which provided an infectious goodwill to all around her. Everything was possible no matter how complicated . That positive energy spilled over in bucket loads and helped everyone create true friendships with Sarah, making her loss so hard to bear for so many. We are all so very sad Sarah passed long before her time , and on behalf of the whole company i would like to pass on our condolences and wish the family all the strength needed to get through this difficult time.
