Sarah Barron, a recent divorcee single mother of four, decided to put her affairs in order if she were to meet her maker before her children were old enough to do it for her. The final part of this preparation became her favorite part - the inscription of a half ledger. Because of her divorce she didn't want her surname to be as large as her first name. and decided that before anything else. Sara loves music, passionate for jazz and blues. Her parents were born and raised in Southern California and she loved the beaches and the ocean but never lived there. So after graduation high school packed up all of her belongings and moved to Southern California to study at a jazz school. After much thought she decided on a border for around the shutter all the notes to a Duke Ellington tune, "I ain't got nothin' but the blues". As for the epitaph she read through and found what she truly felt - "Music is love...In search of a word". She downloaded thousands of pictures of the ocean and the sun, deciding on the sun setting in the west and the motion on the ocean. Rather than her full date of birth, which she may have added at the time of her death, she found it simpler with the year only. At the last minute she decided to add her children into the monument by adding their years of birth to the waterway.
