Sara’s keen maternal character served not only her own children, but countless kids that found a warm meal and open arms when they walked through the door of the family home. Sara’s uncanny ability to make each person in her presence feel safe, loved and seen led to many kids’ lives being positively impacted through her work at the Boys & Girls Club of Oak Ridge. Nothing made her prouder than seeing her “Club Kids” succeed. Sara’s best days were those surrounded by her kids and grandkids. She loved them all fiercely and knew just what each one needed.
Sara is preceded in death by her parents, Chuck and Lorrie Souder, and by her sister Robbie Souder. She is survived by her brother Glenn Souder, sister Donia (Rich) Sheets, brother Craig Bradford, former husband Todd Baker. Children Michael (Emily), Maxwell (Amy), Andrya (Devin), Luke, Kennedy (Collen), and Jett. Grandchildren that knew her as Mimi: Jaden, Bentley, Dominic, Olivia, Harley, Malcolm, Lilah, Tatum, Nakota, Magnolia, John, and Erik.
A Celebration of Sara will be held Saturday, September 7, 2024 at 11am at The Student Center of Calvary Baptist Church, 3219 Kingston Pike, Knoxville TN. Informal service to begin at 12pm.
