We are in shock. My wife opened the newspaper this AM and asked me "Don't you know a Sarah Boretsky?" I nearly jumped out of my skin. OMG- it's my old friend John B's and Susan's daughter! This can't be! Just finished watching the lovely tribute but my hear sticks in my throat. We send our deepest and most sincere condolences, love and respect to the entire Boretsky and Wallace families. From my favorite poem about life and a loved one's passing:"It's just a box of rain, I don't know who put it there.Believe it if you need it, or leave it if you dare.And it's just a box of rain or a ribbon for your hair.Such a long long time to be goneAnd a short time to be there" Robert HunterWe wish the family strength and peace. We love youDave Michelsohn and Gina Mahfouz and Family

It been such a long time since we saw you both at UNM, John and Susan, but we had to add our condolences when we saw the obituary in the Albuquerque Journal. We’re so sorry for your loss. We never met Sarah but we share your grief in losing a son or daughter in death, in our case a daughter-in-law. Our son’s wife died suddenly a little over a year ago . The Bible speaks of the ‘sting of death’ and is certainly accurate in that description. It also offers hope in scriptures like Job 14:15 where Job spoke of his confidence of God’s desire to resurrect him. All our love to you, Perry & Melody Baird

I only knew Sarah for a short while , but in that short time I felt like I knew her for a long time . She was such a joy to be around and was always there to lend a helping hand . Sarah would come to work with a smile on her face and when her mom sent her things like pens and notebooks she was so gracious to share with a smile on her face . She will be missed but not forgotten. The family is in my thoughts and prayers.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

This is such a hard time for everyone, and I pray that your family and friends find the comfort that they seek during this painful time. Sarah was such a joy, she had this amazing ability to draw you in and make you feel like the most special and interesting person in the room, and was a loyal friend always. Even when we couldn’t be together in person, as soon as you spoke with her it was like no time had passed at all. I will miss her greatly and always remember the good memories she left with me. Keeping you all in my thoughts.
