Sara was the youngest of 8 children born to Fritz and Anna (Bundter) Weide. The farm where she and her siblings grew up was near the Turkey Creek church, which her grandfather Godfrey Weide had co-founded, about 10 miles northwest of Yates Center, Woodson County, Kansas.

In 1915, Sara graduated from Yates Center High School, where she had been Class Secretary, Captain of the girls' basket ball team, Vice-President of the Athletic Association, Secretary of Alpha Beta Literary Society, and a member of the Girls' Quartet, Glee Club, and Y.W.C.A. High school was also where she met her future husband, Maynard Agnew.

After graduating from Kansas State Agricultural College in 1921, where she majored in Home Economics, Sara became a public school teacher, teaching first grade for over 30 years.

Sara and Maynard married after college, moving first to El Dorado, Kansas, then to Tulsa, Oklahoma, and finally to Albuquerque, New Mexico during the 1930s. They had three children: William Maynard Jr (Bill) 1923-1945, Jane Bethene (Janie) 1924-2014, and David Frazer 1932-2001.

Widowed in 1953 after 30 years of marriage, Sara married long-time family friend and widower Dan McIntire in 1958. Their marriage also lasted 30 years, until Dan died at the age of 94.

Sara died shortly after her 98th birthday, and is buried with Dan in Fairmount Cemetery, near their home in Denver, Colorado.
