Sarah Catherine Marsh filled every room with love, joy, and light.
Her legacy continues by blessing others with the same joy she so freely shared.

Her legacy continues by blessing others with the same joy she so freely shared.

Sarah was a joyful, adventurous, affectionate little girl, who often carried a bit of mischief in her back pocket. Known at home as “Sissy” or “Little,” she was tough and tender, sassy and snuggly, and so much fun! Sarah was a natural leader, a steadfast friend, and a connoisseur of candy and raw oysters. She was driven by a deep sense of justice (taking after her big brother) and had an innate gift for welcoming, including, and truly seeing others. She lived in a way that drew others in while making them feel uniquely special — like she was their personal cheerleader.
The name Sarah means “princess,” daughter of a king, and she is that — daughter of The King — and now lives with Him in glory forever with her H27 friends and loved ones who’ve gone before. Until we meet her there, we will honor and celebrate the ways Sarah loved others so well.










We are incredibly touched by the outpouring of support for our family and for the memories and tributes to our “Little.” We have decided to establish the Sarah Marsh Memorial Fund in partnership with the Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham, a 501c3 entity, to make sure that Sarah’s love and light lives on.
Sarah was one of the 27 young lives lost in the Hill Country flooding. The Heaven’s 27 Foundation was created not only to remember them, but to continue what they began. If you wish to honor all 27, donations to Heaven’s 27 support each family’s individual foundation equally.
