Sarah Sue Reames was born July 12, 1944, in Geary to George and Macel (Shawver) Brown and passed away August 2, 2017 at her home in Isabella, Oklahoma.
Sarah grew up on a farm south of Geary where she attended Geary Schools. She graduated from Geary High School in 1962. After graduation, she attended college at Southwestern Oklahoma State in Weatherford where she received her master's degree in elementary education. Her teaching career began at Fairview Elementary.

Sarah's teaching career consisted of teaching at Fairview, Progressive, Ames and Cimarron Public Schools, from which she retired. Also during this time she raised her family and helped Orlis with the family Farm and Ranch Supply business. After retirement, Sarah continued to be an avid fan of the Cimarron basketball team. She was a member of the Cimarron retired teachers and Major County retired teachers association. Sarah kept in close contact with several ladies she graduated from high school with. They were known as the "Golden Girls" and she always enjoyed meeting them for a get together. Anyone who knew Sarah, knew her favorite team was OU, with the OKC Thunder next. Sarah enjoyed spending time with her family and hearing the squeals and laughter of all her kids and grandchildren. She also enjoyed spending time at her cabin at Buncombe Creek at Lake Texhoma.
