Sarah Nesseth

Sarah Nesseth, age 91, of Dafter, MI went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on February 22, 2023. Sarah was born on February 11, 1932, to William and Bessie Schwiderson, the fourth of fifteen brothers and sisters. She married Dennis Nesseth on October 21, 1950, and they shared 69 years together. Sarah was a helpmate to Dennis through the years, helping him with building many homes for themselves and their children. Sarah loved all her family and had a way of making everyone feel so very special. With a gentle voice she conveyed to us the value of loving the Lord, family, and the simple beauty of life. Sarah enjoyed playing board and card games, car rides to see the beautiful fall colors, collecting pretty dishes, and camping with a good campfire. There were many fishing trips where more often than not, she would out fish everyone. She was a member of the Sault Tribe of Chippewa Indians. Sarah is survived by her daughter-in-law: Karen Nesseth; daughter: Janice (Joe) Hadfield; son: Gordon (Jennie) Nesseth; grandchildren: Jessica (Oliver) Brewton, Erik (Jeni) Nesseth, Greg Postma, Amy Postma, Kevin (Jodie) Postma, Joy (Corey) Butcher, Joe Hadfield, Chris Hadfield, Luke (Erica) Nesseth, Rebekah (Lynn Paulson) Nesseth, Daniel (Callie Krzyzaniak) Nesseth, and Jacob (Holly) Nesseth; and great grandkids: Natalie and Vanessa Brewton, Hannah and Sarah Nesseth, Wyatt Postma, Paige, Megan, and Kyle Postma, Anikah and Amelia Nesseth, and Brantley Heath. She is also survived by 8 siblings: Pearl Maniaci, Albert (Kathy) Schwiderson, Jeanette Compo, Emory (Judy) Schwiderson, Kay (Mike) McCarthy, Les (Linda) Schwiderson, Bill (Laurie) Schwiderson, and Melvin Schwiderson; and a sister-in-law: Shirley Schwiderson.
