Sarah enjoyed cooking and baking. She loved the great outdoors. Her hobbies included, gardening, bird watching, horses, camping and fishing. She loved going to camp on Lake Champlain, Vermont. It was there she would take the most beautiful pictures of wildflowers and sunsets over the lake.

She called him her miracle child. She is also survived by three brothers: Ryan, J.P. and Jake Geannelis; many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends as well as Charlie Pike, Chaz's father.

A special thanks to all those who helped Sarah throughout the years. She appreciated all her health care providers. Also a special thanks to Uncle Ed Pike for helping raise Chaz.
