Remembering Sarah Ogden

Donation protected
Baby Sarah's life and death touched so many in the Battlement Mesa/Parachute community and her story has stretched from coast to coast. 

Her life was taken too soon and our community is mourning her short life. 

Join us as we raise funds to pay for a memorail, funeral arrangements, and child abuse prevention/awareness/investigations. 

Funding Priorities:
1. Provide for a memorial park bench (or similar memorial) so that the Parachute/Battelement Mesa community can remember Sarah for years to come. 

2. Provide funding for fees incured during the cremation process.  Brown's Cremation Service in Grand Junction is graciously cremating Sarah's remains for no cost.  However, other additional services suchs as a rememberance necklace for Sarah's twin brother, certified copies of birth certificates, and other memory items will be provided at cost for keepsakes when Sarah's twin brother is older. 

3. Research, and if practical, provide for a college fund for Sarah’s twin brother.  Ultimately turning over the fund to his adoptive parents.

4. Donate all remaining funds to a Garfield County Colorado nonprofit organization that provides services to child abuse victims and their families.
