Like a rose folding its petals at the close of the day, Sara A. Trice Berry went home to her eternal rest on Friday, September 19, 2014.
One of the most important things in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.
Sara A. Trice Berry was born March 1, 1934 in Griffin, Georgia to Mr. and Mrs. William (Cora) Trice along with her twin brother, Aaron Trice who preceded her in death in April2014.
Sara was a member of First Deliverance Holiness Church. She devoted her life to loving and caring for her husband and children. Mrs. Berry's love, friendship and smile will truly be missed by her circle of friends at Reliable Healthcare whose lives she touched.
Those Left to cherish her memory are her husband, Frank Berry; children, Martin Berry, Shahida (Siddiq) Madyun, Keith Berry, Jacquelyn (Rev. Milton) Hancock, Christopher Berry, Michael Berry, Joseph Berry and Sheila/ deceased (Samuel) Smith; grandchildren, Haneef, Ashanta, Munir, Nena, Jamilla, Kejuan, Milton and Jabrial; great grandchildren, Matthew, Jonah, Shuaibe, Caleb, and Juliana; brothers, Mr. and Mrs. Frank (Lenora) Trice, Mr. Richard Trice and Mr. Leonard (Evelyn) Trice; one sister, Mrs. Hazel (Jimmie) Morris; as well as a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Three brothers, Emzell Trice, Clarence Trice and Aaron Trice and one sister, Willie Mae Brookins also preceded her in death.
Remember
Remen1ber n1e when flowers bloom early in the spring Remember me on sunny days in the fun that summer brings
Remember me in the fall as you walk through the leaves ofgold Remember n1e in the stories that are told
But most ofall remember n1e each day right from the start I will be forever near you for I live within your heart.
