I only knew Sarah for about 3 months, but we became best friend's the moment we met. She was the greatest friend that I've ever had. She always listened to anything & everything that I had to say. She was always there to lend a hand or a shoulder to cry on. I never thought that when I turned around Sarah would be gone. I will never forget about all of the good times we had. I am so thankful to have Glenn,Sherry,Kim, and Troy in my life. Because w/out them I wouldn't know what to do. I LOVE YOU SARAH SOOOOO MUCH. I'll see you in heaven someday. We'll always be BEST FRIENDS FOREVER and ALWAYS .XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Once again I am truly heartbroken. How anyone could hurt such a precious girl, from the messages from all of her friends, she sounded like an Angel on earth. My heart was broken many times in this passed year with the tragedies of children in my area. Innocent children shouldn't have their life taken! I'm just a teenager, who cares, my heart goes out to Sarah's family and the families of the other innocent children. Keep their memory alive, never forget them! <3

I'VE SET AND THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT TO WRITE I REALLY DON'T KNOW IT WARMS ME AND SADDENS ME AT THE SAME TIME WHEN I READ WHAT ALL OF SARAH'S FRIENDS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT HER THERE IS ALOT OF LOVE AND GREAT FRIENDSHIP EXSPRESSED. KIM AND THE REST OF THE FAMILY (OUR WHOLE FAMILY) I KNOW BY WHAT I HAVE READ ABOUT SARAH THAT SHE IS WITH BUDDY,GRANDMA,AND GRANDADDY IN HEAVEN.I KNOW I'M NOT A STRONG CHRISTIAN BUT ONE THING HAS STUCK IN MY HEAD FOR YEARS THE WEEK BEFORE GRANDADDY PASSEDAWAY HE TOLD ME THAT HE WANTED HIS FAMILY TO GET THE LORD IN THERE HEART SO HE COULD SEE US ALL AGAIN AND BE ALL TOGETHER IN HEAVEN. SO PLEASE DO NOT LOSE OR GIVE UP THE FAITH AND WE SHALL ALL BE JOINED AGAIN. I LOVE YOU ALL AND WISHED WE COULD SEE MORE OF EACH OTHER EVEN THOW YOU ALL ARE IN MY HEART AND I LOVE YOU ALL

I didn' really know Sarah at all. I never even talked to her. I saw her a lot though and it was devastating when i heard that she had passed away. Not only was it devestating that she was killed but that some cruel person could ever do such a thing to their own kind for entertainment or fun. I hope that horrible person should burn in hell and feel guilty in his heart and soul, if he even has one,untill the day he dies. Sarah Renee Phillips had lots of friends and were good to all of them. I know one girl when she found out about Sarah threw-up because she was so discusted of that person. Sarah, lots of people love you and we alll know your heaven now and have no more pain. We will always love you and never forget you. You will always be in our hearts. Rest In Peace Sarah untill we meet again. WE LOVE YOU GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't know Sarah that well but I know her pretty well. We didn't talk that much but when we did it was about her day and how she was feeling. Sarah sat behind me in math class. I only had one class with her but I had lunch with her to. I know hella people miss her and wish it never would have happened. She had hella friends who all hella loved her. They will always love her and never forget about her. I will always remember what she was wearing that day. It was light blue jeans with a dark blue sweater, with her hair down. She was very pretty. I will always think about her and never forget about her. It was wronge of the guy who did it. He had know right to. I never thought it could happen to someone I knew but it can so always remember that. It can happen to anyone. Sarah I miss you and love you and always will remember you. ***********************REST IN PEACE************************

Happy Birthday Sarah. I did not know Sarah, or her family. I just happened to view the message board on KTVU's web page, and i saw the message Brian left. So I decided to view Sarah's condolence page. In reading the condolences I found out that today was her birthday. I'm very sorry for your loss. I can't image the pain you must be feeling. I will say a special prayer for Sarah tonight, I can't help but feeling that she lead me to this site. God Bless you Sarah.

my thoughts have been with sarah almost every day since april 6, 2000. even though i thought about her before, but now even more. she has always been a light in my life, and always will be. she was the best thing that ever happened to me when i was the new girl in town and had no friends, she was the one who told me, "who cares what other people think, always be yourself and never be afraid of it! you are a great person and whoever cant accept that is very wrong!" i used to be a really shy person, but sarah helped bring the real fun person out of me. she was an awesome person to hang around with! she helped me through the toughest times of my life! she is not here to help me through this bump in the road, but she will watch over me to make sure i make the right choices. she always was a shoulder which was always there to lean on when i was down. sarah is one of gods children and he is taking very good care of her. she is in good hands, she is an angel who is watching over her family and friends...i luv her dearly, and will never forget all the times we shared. i still live in horror of the day that i recieved a phone call saying that my best friend ("sister" which i never had) is in gods hands now. she is a beautiful angel, which everyone is proud of knowing her. I now live my life day by day, and take my time. i love her sister sherry, her mother kim, and father glenn. to her family-live your lives day by day and take your time, try to recover, which cannot be replaced, but try your best till you meet again...my deepest thoughts and condolences go out to everyone in her family..i love you guys. i shall say a prayer for sarah tonight, and every night.

I just wanted to say that i am very sorry for what happened to sarah.. My condolences go out to every person in the Phillip's family especially Sarah's mother and father...It's such a tragic event...Something like this happening to a young girl like Sarah or any person for that matter, is just a horrible thing.......And to know that the killer (william wilson) better known by everyone in Vacaville by the name Pookie, Was a friend to Sarah's brother matt and at one time boyfriend to her older sister..This makes the event more unthinkable...Pookie (william Wilson) was no stranger.... This was someone who used to come around Sarah's house and hang out as a friend.... As a matter of fact that is where I first met Pookie...Hanging out in the garage at Sarah's house with her brother matt...Sarah was a very sweet young girl who's life was tragicly cut short by a very sick individual...and by doing so Pookie you just assured yourself that your life will get cut short too... To anyone that reads this...If you happen to drive by Sarah's house and see the flowers and balloons and cards out side in memory of Sarah...say a prayer for her and her family...They need it.. ~*~Sarah Phillips Rest In Peace~*~ @}-}---

She is a pretty good person (what i hear). it is sad that sara had to die the way she did. Her killer was a punk, that needs to be killed. He is a coward, killer and uterly disgusting, and my question is, WHEN DOES THE PAIN AND NONESENSE STOP, WHEN WILL PEOPLE DRAW THE LINE. It's very sad what happened to sara, and i hope soon the madness and the cause of pain to other family's will stop. It's sick and twisted to Rape and kill someone, he derserve's to die 10 times the death that sara did. Rest In Peace Sara Phillips, you will be missed! :(

To Kim and all of her family: Although I have only known you a short time your tragedy has left a deep scar on my heart. Being a mother myself I can feel your pain and how difficult this must be for you. I think of you often and pray that someday you will find peace. I lost my Dad last monthn who was also my friend and my hero. I talked to him last night after I went to Sarah's funeral and told him to watch over this little angel. Kim, Sarah's memory will be forever etched in your soul and she will always be with you. I will say a little prayer for you every day. With love, Pam

Hilda, Kim, Sharon, Marty & Elizabeth, I remember Sarah going to her cousins house and they were always laughing. They seemed to be more sisters then cousins. I am so very sorry for this tragedy. I know Bud will be taking care of her now. I guess it is his turn. This should have never happened and it always seems like it is the good ones that god takes from us for whatever reason. I cannot even to being to image the pain. I am sending big bear hugs your way. I know it can't help the pain, but I hope you know how much you are loved and thought about in these sad times. I Love You Guys like you were my own family.

Dear Hilda, your daughter Kim & family..it's been many years since we met when I visited my Sister, Betty Swallom & Len at Travis AFB, so you may not remember me. She has talked of you so often through the years though, I still feel like I know you. I just wanted to tell you how very sorry I am, and my heart goes out to you and your family. I will pray for God's Blessings for you all to help you get through these difficult days and the ones ahead.

I met Sarah when i was a 10th grader at Will C. Wood High School.It was the 95' I believe they were up at Solano lake going camping. That night the family started roasting marshmellows and Sarah grabed me a stick and put one on the fire for me. I visited the family a lot through that summer,and off and through out the other years. I cant say that i knew her very well, but from what i did know of her i know that she was very giving,caring,respectful,and loving to everyone that was ever around her. She did not deserve what happened to her. Kim i dont know know if you remember me (ELLA) i used come over and visit with Matt. I'll send a prayer out each day for you and your family. I wish your I could say more, but there are really no words that i can say that will take of your daughter. My love and prayers go out to you and your family. Stay strong and keep your head up.

Sarah was my best friend since we were 9 years old, ever since i moved over 400 miles away, i think about her every day. every time went to visit relatives there, she lived right down the street from my grandma, i always went to visit her, But now i have to visit her in a way that i never thought i would. i have written a poem for her, i shed much sorrow in our tragic loss, she was the only sister i ever had...i didnt have any, so we would pretend. She was a very beautiful and loving girl, but now she is an angel watching over all the ones she loved. i will miss her so much and think about her every day, i tell my friends (who dont know her) and they cry too, she is a very loved girl, and always will be. i loved her with all my heart, we will remain best friends forever. she always used to call me Spanky. i will never forget going to school with her and getting many laughs from her, she always stuck up for me. she remains in my heart forever. my prayers are with her family (kim, sherry, and glenn). my poem to her: (you and i. you and i used to sit in the sand, always talkin about what we had planned, but now you are gone, but still are living, within my heart, deep in my soul,you and i. you and i were best friends, my sister i never had, but now you are gone, since your leaving my days have become dark,you and i.) i love her and miss her...i pray for you every night.

There are no words to take away the pain. There are no ways to not feel sad. When I heard the sirens pass by my home on that fateful evening, I said "I hope no one is hurt". But the story was not to be so, and my heart broke in sadness as the details of Sarah came to light. I wish I could embrace this family and comfort them in their sorrow. Why Now? I asked. Why do these tragedies happen to us at all? Sarah will be held in the Arms of Angels watching over her family from now on. Losing a Special Someone is never an easy thing, we must find faith and courage in knowing that the Universe has brought home a special soul. To Sarah's family my prayers are with you that you may heal and find comfort amongst your family and friends. For truely these events touch an entire community leaving us all more aware of how precious life really is. "The Soul Would Have No Rainbow If The Eyes Had No Tears" In Memory of Sarah Renee Phillips

News of your passing came at 10:30, Thursday night. Thoughts of you and me raced through me like fire. Sarah, you touched our hearts with your every visit. You went to the airport with me to see me off becuase you were going to miss me last summer. You met me on my return with a bouque of roses and a hug. The numerous notes and letters we passed decorate my bedroom, along with the balloons and flowers I received from you. I never dreamed I would be writing to you this way. When I moved from Vacaville in December, I missed you so much. Brittany told me yesterday, she saw you recently and you said to tell me you miss and love me. I got your message days too late. I miss and love you too.

What a horrible thing to happen. My husband and I were driving up the street where this happened. We live near by. I wasn't expecting to see the house where Sarah lived or anything. We drove by and there was a candle light vigil in the front yard and there were some people standing out front in the driveway. My heart sunk. I wanted to stop and say how sorry I am and not to worry that God is taking care of their little girl now for them until they get there. She is in good hands. I think of Sarah every day and I didn't even know her. My prayers are with the family.
