George met them in Rice with team and wagon and took them on from there. Sarah had made a point of taking her burial clothing with her. Her daughter, Carrie Mae Gale Wilkins recorded that she had helped her mother finish her apron before she left. Upon leaving Sarah made a point of kissing everyone and saying "goodbye".

The Gospel Plan thou taught us, that salvation we may gain." On August 21, 1931, seventeen years after her mother passed away, Carrie recorded her first visit to the grave site, saying.
