"Sara, a survivor of the Holocaust, was preceded in death by her husband, Nathan, and daughter, Monique. (Edited to remove living people and their spouses)
Throughout her adult life Sara was out-spoken, whether it was fighting the Nazis in the Belgian underground, as a prisoner of Auschwitz, or as a wife, mother, sister, grandmother or great-grandmother. Sara was a liaison between General Eisenhower and the Allied liberators and concentration camp survivors. After WWII, Sara immigrated to the US, first to El Paso, Texas, then moving to Colorado Springs, Colorado, ultimately returning to El Paso, to spend the final years of her life.
Sara enjoyed cooking, baking, fishing, needle point and gossiping with her friends on the porch in the evening. She loved listening to the Rabbi, and being an active member of the Jewish community. Over her life she inherited many people who would call her "Mom." Her ability to connect with people will only be outlived by the memories of those to whom she touched.
Later in life, Sara became a source of inspiration for thousands as she began to recount her story. Whether it was told in classrooms, lecture halls, televised broadcasts or private individual conversations, she made sure that we would never forget. The same can be said about Sara, for every life she touched, for every story ever told, for anyone who reads her book; she, Sara Hauptman, will never be forgotten.
A funeral service will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, December 23, 2014 at Shrine of Remembrance "America the Beautiful" Chapel. Sara will be laid to rest, following the services, at Sons of Israel Cemetery, Colorado Springs, Colorado.
In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the El Paso Holocaust Museum in her honor."
