Sarah Abigail Arrington, of Cleveland, Tennessee. died on Tuesday, October 25, 2016, following a lifelong struggle with brain injury.
Her final hours were spent around her loving family and close friends that Abigail's life had impacted in many ways. Abigail's life may have seemed hard and too short to some, but her family knows that she lived a very happy life, full of love and encouragement from everyone around her, despite having too short a time. However, we know that it's not how long a person lives but the quality and what they chose to do with the life they were given and we can say with full hearts that Abby lived a life full of happiness and adventure. Although Abigail's condition may have left her looking small and fragile, she possessed a strength and perseverance that overcame the many obstacles set in front of her; she was a fighter till the very end.
