Sara M. Robinson, 92, of Williamsport, passed away Wednesday, March 22, 2023. She was predeceased by her devoted husband of 65 years, James, who passed on May 22, 2017.
Sara, often known as Sally, was born on August 31, 1930 in Lock Haven and was the daughter of Russell and Louise Solt Evans. For most of her life she was a homemaker but she spent several very rewarding years as a teacher’s aide in the Williamsport School district.
She was a member of Bethel-Linden Presbyterian Church, a founding member of the local chapter of the Association for Children with Learning Disabilities and a member of the Williamsport Garden Club. She and James enjoyed square dancing with the Swingin’ Bees and Honeys. Sally was an avid reader and an outstanding seamstress.
She is survived by four daughters, Paula Robinson, Pamela (Curtis) Fink, Patti Jo (James) Turner, all of Williamsport, and Penni Parker of State College. She has five grandchildren, Brian Fink, Christina Furister, Kyle Turner, Mia Turner and Austin Parker; and five great-grandchildren. She is also survived by brothers, Clifford and Robert Mays of New York, and was pre-deceased by her sister, Gloria Harvey.
A graveside service will take place on Wednesday, March 29, at 1:00 p.m. at the Buchanan Baptist Church Cemetery. Pastor Lisa Dabney will be officiating. The family will provide the flowers. Without fail, everyone who met Sally described her as “so sweet.” If you would like to honor her memory, the family asks that you do something “sweet” for someone else, and think of her.
Sally’s daughters would like to express their profound gratitude to everyone at the Williamsport Home for the kindness, respect, and loving care she received as a resident there.
