Remembering Sarah (Supersprout)

[Georgie]

Sarah - or Supersprout as she was known here - died five years ago today.   

She lit up this forum with her wit and wisdom and I know that those of us who have been around a while still miss her. 

I doubt she's resting but I hope she's at peace.   :)

She'll be mulching everywhere with her straw. God bless, Sarah  :)

[cornykev]

There will be straw every where upstairs and she'd be laughing her head off
Five years G, I can't believe it's been that long
Lets hope Grandma gives her a hand with her garden.   :)

I only knew her for a few months before she died and yet I will never forget her.Everytime I spread the straw I think of her.

Supersprot was before my time but she has been mentioned from time to time and I know she was very

well thought of.

Certainly a reassuring depth of feelng for this member as the above sample offering shows her valued assistance to other members,hope your helping St Peter to dig deep Supersprout..... ;)

Supersprout was the first member to send me a PM when I first joined A4A. Unfortunately didn't get to meet her even though she lived reasonably near me.

I can hardly believe five years have passed. My Victoria Plum tree was planted in her memory and I got the first real harvest only last year! I still have her PM's in my Inbox too.

She was a lovely person, and we're privileged to have met her.

Is it really 5 years?!
It was Supersprout who encouraged me to use hops as a mulch and I've never looked back! I was privileged enough to go to her funeral and she was an amazing person, not just an amazing gardener!

[artichoke]

I still have some of her jerusalem artichokes and her generous advice sheet on growing them and making soup! Can't believe that was 5 years ago. I also have a PM or two that I don't like to wipe out. Here is a sample of her writing for those who never met her.

Me too shirl! She died just before I joined the forum...and yet she was still so alive in people's minds that everyone still talked about her.
I am sure she and Grandma are growing the most beautiful veg (all properly mulched!)...

Sarah gave me a lot of help on line especially on how to keep down the weeds....yes, mulching. 

When I visited my niece "Prink"who lived in March at that time, she decided to invite some A4A members around for afternoon tea.  Lorna was able to join us but, unfortunately, Sarah had to go to the hospital and couldn't come.  Not long after, we heard that Sarah had passed away.

I was thinking of her just yesterday!  I think of her everytime I mulch!

I just can't believe it's five years.........

I often think of her wise advice! 

Grandmas passing boughtt her to my mind I suppose.

[star]

Where on earth does the time go? I joined just a couple months before Supersprout passed, she was knitting an amazing sweater.....I said to her to please post pics when she had finished. Sadly she never did finish it.

Lovely lady  :)

[Georgie]

It's lovely to read all your memories of Sarah, quite takes me back.

I think the reason Sarah never finished the jumper was because she was determined to finish another knitting project.  I've found the link but for some reason the photo is no longer available.

I can't believe it's really that long ago. i still have a PM from her....I couldn't bear to delete it.
So nice that everyone remembers...was thinking about her as I put straw round my Rhubarb earlier in the year.

[Debs]

..........and I think fondly of Sarah too, tho the actual anniversary escaped me, so thanks for bringing it to us.

My thoughts are very much with her son atm and I hope that he's achieving all the things in his life he wanted. Never a good time to lose a Mum and it was particularly hard for him.

I didn't know Sarah at all as I'm relatively new around here but, from reading just a very few of her words, it's easy to tell she was a vibrant, busy, humours person to know.

As has been said I hope she and "Grandma" are having fun with the big chap's plots.
I think they would make a great team.
