She is survived by her mother, Judy Carr, Marion; her father, Elmer David Darst, Delaware; her maternal grandmother, Mary Carr, Prospect; her paternal grandmother, Eileen Darst, Delaware; brothers, David Allen Darst, Van Wert; Shane Darst, Delaware; sister, Elisha Darst (Josh) Chillicothe; special friends, Judy Scheff, Ciera Lynn Chamberlin and Paul Schwenning, who never left her side; and Codi Kitts

She was preceded in death by a brother, Jason Carr.

The family would like to thank all the doctors, nurses, staff and volunteers that helped them during their time of need at Riverside Hospital, as well as all of their friends and family members and Kasarah’s Facebook friends for their support, prayers and kindness.

The words do not come to express my sadness and grief

The words do not come to tell you how I feel

The words do not come to comfort you

Angels surrounded Kasarah to be taken to the Lord

A beautiful place to continue his work

We are left behind to continue our effort on earth

Waiting for our turn to be with her and God in Heaven

I love you

Kathy Carr Triplett

I can't tell you how many times in the last couple of days I've run across something that reminds me of Kasarah.  Our hearts are broken and it is going to take some time to recover, but we will never forget her humor, the way she approached life and how easy it was to enjoy her and love her.  She was such a blessing in our lives and the life of our son, Paul.  She will be and is deeply missed.  Our prayers and thoughts are with you.  We hurt with you and think of you very often.  Please let us know if you need anything.

I had the pleasure of knowing kasarae was a very sweet girl, anh. Shd very down to earth. If you needed someone to talk to , she would always be there. It is a shame that she had to leave this earth so early. I will truely miss her. I am going to keep her family and friends in my prayers. Especially for Judy and Ciera: it is going to be a long road ahead, But through God and your friends you will get through this. I am sorry i can't make it to the funeral, but if you need me to talk or anything else , i will be here for you. My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone that knew Kasarah.

Kasarah was and is an amazing person, a wonderful friend. I had the opportunity to know her the past three years. Myself and fellow classmate Chelsea Adams would leave class on our hour lunch breaks and just have the typical goofball fun. We told eachother anything and everything hoping one of the three of us could relate. Even though her last years of her life may not have been the greatest or the most glamorous... I just hope it doesn't sound selfish to say that her last few years of life, were the best years of mine. I'm a better and more understanding person because of this beautiful, caring and generous woman God gave to us, to learn from her and see the way life should be seen through her eyes.
Kasarah is never forgotten 'nor will she ever be.
In our hearts we always pray she is there.
A guardian angel to everyone she loved and knew.

Blessings and Love,
Tayler Nicole Combs

i just have to say, kasarah was one of my closest friend, and she was always the best, i loved her like crazy, and all them times we chilled. our bus rides to the week of spring break where we went to my friends everyday, to sitting with her at lunch sometimes, my junior year. she was a beautiful loving soul who indeed was too young to go, but now that she is an angel above, looking over us, i'll see her once again in the future, where we could vent our problems to one another once more. now i pray for her family, and her friends," i pray to lord jesus, to take care of her while she is up there, and to take care of her family, help them get through this hard time, lord jesus, i pray that it all goes away one day, the pain and suffering of losing someone, i pray, that this family doesn't go through anymore pain, i pray that this child who you took upon ends up in heaven, as a beautiful guardian angel. in lord jesus name, amen." Kasarah, you will never be forgotten! i love you girl.! sisters at heart, for  forever.<3

I won't pretend to have a clue why something like this could be allowed to happen but I do know that the scriptures say that all things work together for good according to God's will and I will accept through faith in my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ that this, as painful as it is, will work for the good in fulfilling God's will. May the Lord comfort you at this time.

Judy and family, Our hearts are so saddened to hear about losing your beautiful daughter.  We wish we could explain why such things have to happen to good people...but we also believe that "good things come from bad" if we keep looking.  We hope that knowing many others are thinking about you and sending up prayers of strenth for you...that somehow that can help bring you some comfort.  Just one week ago, Tom and I were talking over dinner, and he asked about you, wondering if I knew anything about where or how you were...I never dreamed our paths would cross this way one week later! Keep trusting in the Lord that he has a plan for you and that others care and are praying for you.

I am truly sorry to hear of your loss.  My daughter, Chelsea Adams, was friends with Kasarah from school/Healthtech class.  Chelsea spoke highly of Kasarah and said she was a wonderful person.  It is always difficult to hear of a young person being lost at such a young age.  Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.

You have my heart felt sympathy. I know what you are going through and my heart is heavy with sadness. There are never any answers to the questions we may have. One thing I know to be true is although we may never understand why, Jesus is; by our side, he will hold us up, he is our strength when we are weak, he will never waiver. I personally relied on the following verse Psalm 46:10 "Be still and know that I am God" No matter how everything appears to be out of control, God is in control.  Love, Your Cousin Dee
