“At around the age of 19 Sarah decided her future lay in Morecambe and returned to be with her family there. It was in Morecambe that she met Rob, who has been her partner for 22 years.

"Sarah will be remembered as the fun loving, kind, caring person she was, protective of those she loved, and who was the life and soul of any gathering.

“She had many friends from different times in her life, but they all agree on one thing – Sarah had a heart of gold and would do anything for the people she cared about.

“She will be sadly missed by all who loved her, and all who were loved by her.”
