Sarah Lucille, affectionately known as G.G., Aunt Cil, Lucille, or Lucy, passed away peacefully into the arms of Jesus on October 31, 2023, at the age of 102, just one week short of her 103rd birthday. She was born on November 7, 1920, to Clifford and Rosa VanSickle.
Sarah was preceded in death by her parents, husbands, Orion L. Starks and Carrol Dennis; sons, Gary Lee and David Alan; sisters, Dorothy King, Bertha Baird, Katherine Marschke; and brothers, Frank VanSickle, Jay VanSickle and Joe VanSickle.
Family was of utmost importance to her. She is survived by her daughter-in-law, Pam Starks; grandchildren, Deanna Horen (Ryan), Donna Kelly (Jim), Curtis Starks; and great-grandchildren, Cameron (Olivia), Jessica, Brenna, Emily, Nathan, Zachary and Rylan.
She was a wonderful woman who loved her family more than anything. She will be remembered as a dedicated and loving mother, grandmother, aunt, relative and friend to so many. She had a passion for writing, spending time in her garden, and cherished her time at the cabin in Brown County. She was also the original (Charter) Founder of New Hope of Indiana (Noble School) and held the distinction of being the oldest living alumni of Beech Grove High School, class of 1938. She had a long lifetime of experiences that only a book could contain and was an inspiration in so many ways. One motto she always wanted to live her life by was "Attitude and Gratitude"
Lucille loved the Lord and was a member of the Beech Grove Methodist Church since she was 16 years old.
