In a Givealittle<\/a> post, Lisa Clark wrote about the grief the family experienced after the sudden loss of their \u201cbeautiful Sarah\u201d.<\/p>\n She said the loss to Cameron and her two children, Hannah and 13-year-old Max Clark, would be felt every day for the rest of their lives.<\/p>\n \u201cWe don\u2019t know how we\u2019ll ever bear our loss. But at the same time, we are grateful for everything she poured into our lives every day that she was with us, and we know that her love, especially for her darling kids, will be with us always,\u201d Lisa said.<\/p>\n She said that while nothing can ever replace the void Sarah left, they wanted to do whatever they could to honour her legacy and give her kids all the opportunities she would have wanted for them.<\/p>\n Sarah\u2019s legacy <\/p>\n Lisa said that although Sarah had left them far too soon, her legacy of serving and advocating for others would live on. <\/p>\n \u201cShe was the embodiment of care in action, of love with hands and feet,\u201d Lisa said. <\/p>\n While tidying up some of Sarah\u2019s things after the funeral, Cameron said he came across some of her journals. <\/p>\n In 2011, she wrote: \u201cI have always valued community, but had tended to be more on the \u2018being there for\u2019 and \u2018helping others\u2019 side, rather than \u2018being vulnerable\u2019 and \u2018accepting help from others\u2019. <\/p>\n \u201cBut community is a two-way street, and just as much as there are seasons when we need to be there for others, there are also seasons where we need to let others be there for us and help carry our burdens … Not only do we celebrate together, but we mourn together too,\u201d Sarah wrote. <\/p>\n Cameron said in 2018, after he attended a special \u201cWeekend To Remember\u201d with Sarah, where they focused on their relationship and thought about the future, Sarah\u2019s journal featured the question \u201cWhat kind of legacy do I want to leave?\u201d as one of her main reflections.<\/p>\n Cameron said on their wedding day, Sarah\u2019s brother David told him that he was the luckiest man in the world, to which he simply responded \u201cI know\u201d. <\/p>\n Sarah trained as an engineer and enjoyed running large-scale projects at big companies for a number of years. <\/p>\n Lisa said Sarah\u2019s \u201ctrue passion\u201d was for people and making things better for them. <\/p>\n Around seven years ago, she gave up the corporate life to turn to community work, where she was involved with Christians Against Poverty and assisted people struggling with hardship and debt.<\/p>\n She later managed the Lifecare Trust at the Windsor Park Baptist Church.<\/p>\n Clark remembered by community for her \u2018genuine care\u2019<\/p>\nSarah Clark died after a car crashed into an Auckland cafe in Forrest Hill on March 11.<\/p>\n
