Funeral Expenses for Sarah Braswell

Hi. I am Bridgette Harris, lifelong best friend to the Braswell family. This is the official GoFundMe page to help the family with the burden of unexpected funeral expenses for Sarah M. Braswell. If you know the family well, it took a tremendous amount of effort to get approval to create this page. It’s hard to swallow pride and ask for help when in need and they completely understand if you can’t help. Prayers and positive thoughts are also appreciated.

Sarah Melissa Braswell, 47 of Elkins passed away Saturday, March 30, 2024, in Fayetteville. She was born November 14, 1976, in Springdale to Bobby J. Braswell and Susan (Triska) Braswell.
