Miss Sarah was born in the Roddy Community in Dodge County Georgia to Arnold Patrick Scarborough Sr. and Annie Nora Scarborough at home on February 6, 1932, as her mother's breath froze on the edge of the quilt. Sarah was a 1950 graduate of Dodge County High School.

She worked a long and distinguished career. Starting out in the Shipping and Billing department at L & H shirt factory before becoming an invaluable asset to Olvis Crooms as Office Manager and Bookkeeper at Cochran Insurance and Realty for over 30 years. In her later years while in retirement, she was asked and returned to work as a bookkeeper for the State Bank of Cochran. Her final retirement was at age 80.

Miss Sarah was a member of Lakeview Baptist Church and gleefully played the piano five days a week at the Bleckley County Seniors Center. We would like to thank the staff and participants at the Center for looking out for her in her later years as well as providing meals and keeping an eye on her from "across the corner".
