Sarah Jane Mellinger, was a woman of purpose and determination. She smiled at the future, because she knew where she would spend eternity. She looked well to the ways of her household. She showered her family with love. Whether she was comforting her dying daughter, Louise, or her cancer-stricken husband Delbert, or sending her love to her young Marine Grandson, fighting for his country half the world away, her touch showed how deeply she loved. Proverbs 31:26-28a [NASB] describes her legacy. "She opens her mouth in wisdom, And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. She looks well to the ways of her household. And does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and bless her..."The world is a better place, for having known Sarah Jane Mellinger". Grandson - Steven Olson.
