  Sara Jane Herb 
   
  GETTYSBURG Sara Jane Herb, 87, lifelong resident of Lebanon, died Monday 
  morning, February 27, 2012, in Gettysburg, after several months of declining 
  health. She had spent the last few weeks in the care of the Gettysburg 
  Lutheran Retirement Village. Born in Lebanon, in 1924, to Elizabeth and 
  Aloysius Kirkessner, she was one of six children, having four sisters and a 
  brother. She married Austin Herb on New Years Eve 1945, in Lebanon, and they 
  settled in the South Lebanon community the rest of their lives. Her husband, a 
  WWII veteran and career U.S. Postal Service employee, preceded her in death in 
  1981. She is survived by two children, James J. of Portland, Ore., and Joan M. 
  Leedy of Gettysburg. She was preceded in death by a son, Dennis. She is also 
  survived by five grandchildren and numerous great-grandchildren. Sara Jane, 
  or "Sedie", as she was known to her family and friends, was a 1942 graduate of 
  Lebanon High school and member of St. James Lutheran Church in Lebanon. After 
  raising her family, she worked part time cleaning the Dauphin Deposit branch 
  on State Drive for many years. She enjoyed being around her family, friends, 
  and neighbors and was enjoyed for her positive outlook and gregarious and 
  generous nature. She did needlepoint and mostly gave away her beautiful work 
  to others. She also enjoyed reading, collecting angels, shopping, and visiting 
  favorite restaurants. For many years she was active in the class of 1942 
  reunions and get togethers. And, at one time she was an avid Philadelphia 76's 
  fan. A memorial service for Sara Jane will be held at St. James Lutheran 
  Church in Lebanon on Friday, March 2, 2012, at 2 p.m.
