Sarah Pawlikowski Obituary

Sarah E. H. Pawlikowski was born September 18, 1951 to Airman Lyle  and Helen Hendrick.

She was the second of 4 children.  I could tell you that my mom lived in England as a child, graduated from Columbia High School in 1969, and worked for Walmart for what seemed like forever.  She was predeceased in Death by her former husband Jospeh J Pawlikowski Sr  and is survived by her four children Helen McWilliams, Sarah Touma, Joseph J  Pawlikowski Jr , and Vera Pawlikowski . But that's not who our mother is. 

 Our mother was the homeroom mother of 4 kids whose school friends still remember her fondly after 40 plus years.  Our mother was the mother who volunteered as secretary at the  skating rank so we could take dance/ skating lessons. Our mother  was the mom who sewed our chorale and prom dresses.  She was the woman who  wore the same ugly brown sweater for 100 years so that we could have new clothes.  Our mother was the Grandmother who wore lipstick for her Grandson's Grandparents day because he asked her to dress up. She was the Grandmother who was led to be baptized because of her Grandson's love for Yeshua. She had nicknames for all 7 of her grandchildren...Boo Boo Bear, Peanut , Snaggie,Nanookk,Gopher,Queen Mini Me, and Chipmonk. 

She was proceeded in death by her former husband. She is survived by her 4 children , Helen R. McWilliams, Sarah Touma, Joseph Pawlikowski,  and Vera Pawlikowski. 

She was the woman who talked with everyone, no one was a stranger.  She made an impact on everyone she met. Our mother was love. She will be missed so very much  , not just by us  but also by her very many friends and family members. 

There will be a graveside service , Dec 14th, at 12: 00 PM  at Dust to Dust Green Burial , 205 Nulty Crossing, Swansea SC 29160  followed by a Celebration  of Life  at Taylor Street Baptist Church, 1000 Hafley Court, Cayce SC 29033.
