In Perpetual Remembrance of Sarah…Through her Chi Omega Sisters…. And to Help Other Students Waging Health Battles
Sarah Amend, a UC student and proud Bearcat, lived for 21 short years. She battled her entire life, but always had a smile, even in the midst of battle. Her foes were not people. She battled Cystic Fibrosis, a double lung transplant, and time. She lived without the need or desire for pity, and always felt others had it worse. Her empathy and loving temperament always leaned towards assisting others in need.
