Sara Miranda Payas

Sara Miranda Payas was an incredible, strong, and loving mother, wife, and grandmother. She raised her three children as a single parent, with so much love and care that they are the successful people that they are today. She found true love in her husband, who she adored, and with whom she shared years of memories. You could feel their love when they stepped through the door. She was a warm and caring grandmother, who helped raise her grandchildren. She taught them the value of family, love, and empathy, which helped shape them into the men they are today. She was also a loving sister, aunt, cousin, and friend.

In honor of her selfless nature, we created this GoFundMe to support a charity that was dear to her. Similar to how she lived, she never wanted anything for herself, but always wanted to give to those in need. She asked that instead of flowers, loved ones pay it forward to someone else. Specifically, she wanted loved ones to give to St Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital. She was a life long contributor and believed in this important cause. Please feel free to donate however much you can, no donation is too small.

As she showed during her life, it’s not about how much you give but that you give with a full heart.
