GREEN,
Sarah
Besau (née
BESAU)
Born in Schenectady, New York, 1936, died in Ottawa December
6, 2003, was the beloved wife of Paul, mother of Rebecca, Gretchen,
and Amy, and grandmother of Madeline, Simone, Sarah, Adam, and
Lili.
She was the daughter of Marjorie
BESAU and the late Frank
BESAU, and sister of Margaret
ZUCCARINI and the late Ellen
ANGUS.
Receiving a Bachelor of Music degree from the Eastman School
of Music in 1958, Sarah performed and taught flute for many years.
She earned a Master's degree in English Literature from the University
of Western Ontario in 1995, through which she rekindled her lifelong
interest in Native history and culture. After moving to Ottawa,
Sarah was active with the Ottawa Newcomers and shared her love
of literature as a convenor of one of the book clubs and as a
Newcomers publicity director. She spent many happy summers at
her camp in the Adirondacks with family and Friends.
Sarah will be remembered for her devotion to beauty, goodness,
and truth. Throughout her courageous three-year struggle with
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, her spirit remained vibrant, and
despite debilitating physical handicaps, she became an activist
in raising awareness about this destructive disease. Friends
may visit at the Central Chapel of Hulse, Playfair and McGarry,
315 McLeod Street, Ottawa on Friday, December 12 from 2-4 and
7-9 p.m. A Memorial Service will be held in the Chapel on Saturday,
