2023 Mother’s Day Tribute: Sarah Sloan
Rebecca LaBanca shares about her relationship with her mother, Sarah Sloan.
My mother Sarah is one of the strongest women I know. She is the matriarch of my family. She has been a role model to me throughout my life. Before retiring, she was a medical social worker and served as the Spinal Cord Injury Coordinator for Atlanta VA Hospital. She continues to volunteer in her synagogue and community. She is always there for me and is a constant support as I raise my daughter as single parent.
She taught me that experiences in life are better than material possessions. She instilled values in me and my sister from a young age that what you put out into the world is what you get in return and to never take anything for granted. She taught me that it’s important to surround yourself with people who support you when the chips are down and not just during happy times. My mother is fiercely independent and taught me that being self-reliant is a major component to being successful. My mother is always helping others and deserves to be recognized during Mother’s Day for her contribution to our family and her community.
