Sara had an infectious personality and made friends everywhere she went. She loved spending time with family and friends, reading, cooking and baking, gardening, and casino trips.

Sara is survived by her devoted husband, Richard (Dick); their children Tony (Pam) Hetland, Katie (Jonathan) Rhea; grandchildren, Mitchell, Trenton, Graydon, Bentley, and Jackson; sisters, Mary Jo (Jim Henke) Kraft, and Barbara (Gary) Hill; brother, David Kraft; sister-in- law and brother-in-law, Kim (Rick) Krummel and Gary Hetland; and several nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by father, Harvey Kraft Sr., mother, Muriel (Harris) Kraft, brother, Harvey Kraft Jr, father-in-law and mother-in-law, Richard E. Hetland Sr. and Arlene (Hoffmann) Hetland.

Due to the current pandemic, the family will not be holding a funeral service for Sara. When things are safe for all, a future celebration of life for all that loved Sara will be held.

A special thanks to the physicians, nurses, and staff at Mayo Hospital in La Crosse, WI who provided excellent and compassionate care for Sara during her unexpected illness.
