In 2005, she married Troy R. Landberg in a civil ceremony. The couple resided in Fergus Falls for several years.

She was involved in Cub Scouts, the Lion’s Club, and with The Underwood Legion. She supported her friends and family in all their various activities.

She greatly loved animals, both large and small. She especially enjoyed camping, fishing, traveling, visiting Montana, taking pictures, listening to music, spending time on the lake, and spending lots of time with friends and family.

Sara had a broad and varied sense of humor. She was always laughing and reminding people to not take life too seriously. She had a strong sense of self-confidence; she always knew her worth and knew who she was. Sara had a smile that could light up a room, and a beautiful soul. She shined as the brightest light, and left a mark on all those she touched. She will be missed beyond measure.

Blessed be the memory of Sara Dawn.
