The true testament to the life lived by Sarah Steury was the large amount of close friends she had.  Having one best friend was not enough for Sarah - she had many.  She can best be described by her friends as being "one of a kind".  A beautiful young lady, Sarah had long golden-blond hair and a gorgeous smile.
 
While at Bellmont, Sarah was an honors student and active in several service-oriented organizations, extra-curricular activities, and sports.  Sarah strived to be the best she could be – not only in the sports she played, but also in her class work. 
 
Sarah was a student at Indiana University and had just completed her first year of classes in her pursuit to earn a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) when a tragic vehicle accident in Decatur ended her life in May 1998.  Sarah is survived by her parents, Linda Steury-Mitchel and Dick Steury; her brother Nick.  This scholarship was established to keep Sarah’s name alive at Bellmont High School and here in Decatur, Indiana.
