Sara Margaret Keasey

Sara Margaret Keasey, 95, of Hagerstown, Maryland, passed away Wednesday, August 07, 2024. Born on March 11, 1929, in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, she was the daughter of the late William Cloyd Marks and Madelyn Louise (Walls) Marks.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her sister, Jeanne Carrier, and grandson, Bart Wingerd.

Sara moved to Hagerstown in 1956 with her family and quickly became a part of the community. She dedicated over three decades of her life to retail, working at S.S. Kresge's at Long Meadow Shopping Center from 1958 to 1988; then continuing her career at J.C. Penney at the Valley Mall, until her well-deserved retirement in 1998.

Sara's defining quality was her devotion to her family. She cherished every moment spent with her loved ones, whether it was enjoying family dinners, going on outings, or simply having one-on-one get-togethers. Her love for mother nature was evident in her appreciation for the simple joys of life.

 Sara is survived by children, Scott Keasey (Jenny) of Salisbury, MD; Susan Turner (Hap) of Hagerstown, MD; Steven Keasey (Kim) of Hagerstown, MD; Sara Keasey of High Point, NC; grandchildren, Missy Joy, Marty Turner (Amy), Kristi Bender (Eric), Kim Jedlicka (Jason), Teri Foster (Randy), Maggie Keats (Michael), Scott Keasey (Sarah), Ryan Wingerd, Derrick Herman (Emily), Mason Herman (Jessica); as well as 27 great- grandchildren and 12 great-great-grandchildren.

A celebration of life will be held Saturday, August 24, 2024 at 2:30 p.m. at Rest Haven Funeral Home, 1601 Pennsylvania Avenue, Hagerstown, Maryland 21742. A reception will immediately follow the service at the Emerald Pointe Community Center, 13335 Emerald Pointe Drive, Hagerstown, Maryland 21742.

The Keasey family would like to thank both Hospice of Washington County and Julia Manor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center for their compassionate and professional care of their mother for the last 5 years.
