    Un sourire angelique,
    Un impact eternelle sur ceux qui t’on connue et ceux qui n’ont jamais eu le plaisir de te rencontrer en personne…

    Your pictures with the kids show how wonderful you were,
    Never met you Sarah and yet you touched my heart forever,
    Rest in peace angel…

  2. Stephanie P. says:

    Hearts are broken all over the world. Anyone who ever saw KA knows what a special artist you are, and how much you will be missed here. Fly even higher now, Sarah; you are a beautiful angel…

  3. Dianne Loftus says:

    Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. I am an avid fan of the Cirque du Soleil shows and the work and talent that go into each and every show can never be taken for granted. Sarah touched so many hearts and was the ultimate professional. We, the public, are sadly reminded that the talents of these phenomenal performers is extremely hard work and that no performance is without risk. My sincerest condolences to Sarah’s family, her friends, her fellow cast members of KA and to the entire Cirque family. There truly are no words. God be with you all, and in time give the Cirque family the strength that Sarah was so full of , the strength to carry on the Cirque tradition of brilliant artistry.

  4. Violetta Lilla Baliga says:

    Sarah, I didn’t know you, but I am heard about the performance, KA where you did a magnificent job. When I saw the coverage on the TV, that you are died during the show, my heart was broken thousands of pieces. Rest in peace Sarah and fly as high as you can with your angel wings.

    Violetta from Hungary.

    And my comment in my own language, Hungarian:

    Sarah, nem ismertelek, de hallottam a KÁ című előadásról, amelyben varázslatosan szerepeltél. Amikor láttam a TV-ben a tudósítást a halálodról, a szívem ezer darabra tört. Nyugodj békében és repülj az angyalszárnyaiddal olyan magasra, amennyire csak tudsz.

    Violetta Magyarországról.

  5. Carla Paredes says:

    RIP Sasoun. Thank you for taking us away from this world with every show. Thank you for your passion and generosity. You will be missed.

    Grande pensée pour toi Sarah qui nous a quitté trop tôt, trop jeune pour partir, mais nous espérons que de là haut tu veilleras sur Ethan et Emy. Nous avons également une pensée pour Mathieu notre cousin (famille huet-guyard-cottier) que nous suivions sur internet ou facebook via nos cousins de Paris. Gros bisous à toi Mathieu, Emy et Ethan.
    Sarah repose en paix

  7. Reinaldo Pereira says:

    Obrigado Sarah, em nome de todos a quem voce encantou com sua graça e beleza Que Deus a tenha e conforte sua familia……

  8. Katia says:

    Reposes en Paix Sarah… C’est bouleversant… Nos meilleures pensées à ses proches, à ses partenaires de scène et tous les acteurs du Monde du Spectacle… c’est le pire scénario qui puisse arriver… Forces et Pugnacité à tous…

  9. Lesia says:

    I did not personally know this beautiful woman who lost her life while performing in Ka, but have a daughter who performs in Quidam, so can only imagine how shocking this must be for her family and co-performers. We know how risky their beautiful performances really are, while always hoping and praying every day that they stay safe. It can only be a very small comfort that she died doing what she loved so much. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you who knew her in any way.

  10. Julie Watson says:

    While I did not know Sarah, my thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends -she sounds like such a wonderful, loving person. May her memory help comfort you all.

    Below is a poem that I would like to share, it is called The Dash.

    I read of a man who stood to speak
    at the funeral of a friend.
    He referred to the dates on her tombstone,
    from the beginning…to the end.
    He noted that first came the date of her birth
    and spoke of the following date with tears,
    but he said what mattered most of all
    was the dash between those years.
    For that dash represents all the time
    that she spent alive on earth.
    And now only those who loved her
    know what that little line is worth.
    For it matters not, how much we own,
    the cars…the house…the cash.
    What matters is how we live and love
    and how we spend our dash.
    So, think about this long and hard.
    Are there things you’d like to change?
    For you never know how much time is left
    that can still be rearranged.
    If we could just slow down enough
    to consider what’s true and real
    and always try to understand
    the way other people feel.
    And be less quick to anger
    and show appreciation more
    and love the people in our lives
    like we’ve never loved before.
    If we treat each other with respect
    and more often wear a smile,
    remembering that this special dash
    might only last a little while.
    So, when your eulogy is being read,
    with your life’s actions to rehash…
    would you be proud of the things they say
    about how you spent YOUR dash?

    Nous nous connaissons pas, mais je suis profondément touché que par ce qui arrive à votre famille.Toutes mes condoléances à cette grande artiste et à la famille.

  12. Benj et Pauline says:

    Sarah,
    nous nous sommes vus à quelques occasions et avons partagés des moments précieux de votre vie comme la naissance de vos petits. Tu as marqué la vie de tellement de gens et bien sûr celle tes enfants, qui continueront leur route en ayant leur maman à leurs côtés, quoi qu’il arrive. Nos pensées sont auprès de tes proches et nos coeurs sont avec toi. Repose en paix Sarah.

  13. guyard monique says:

    je voudrais te dire combien je t’aime sarah.
    tu le sais
    et l’amour est eternel..

  14. Enrique Hernandez Jr says:

    We never personally met Sarah but we experienced “Ka” and witnessed the true beauty of the arts. The absolutely best show we have ever experienced. Our hearts and prayers go out to her family and her family of friends. RIP Sarah.

  15. Allan says:

    I am lost for words. So I will borrow these:

    “The present flowed by them like a stream. The tree rustled. It had made music before they were born, and would continue after their deaths, but its song was of the moment. The moment had passed. The tree rustled again. Their senses were sharpened, and they seemed to apprehend life. Life passed. The tree rustled again.”
    E.M. Forster (Howards End)

    Rest in peace.

  16. David Da Vanzo, NZ says:

    She gave everything for her art, including, most tragically, her life. Deepest sympathies to her family, and to her friends – who it is obvious number in the thousands. Cece Winans sang a song at Whitney Houston’s funeral called Don’t Cry which might provide a source of comfort at this sorrowful time.

  17. Jeff M from Georgia says:

    My sympathies to the children, family and cast. I have seen the show three times. It is AMAZING. It was obvious that all of the cast were doing what they enjoyed. Thanks Sarah for all of the wonderful performances.

  18. Daphnee says:

    Vraiment un tragique évènement. Toutes mes sympathies à la famille de Sara, ses enfants. je suis certaine qu’elle s’est dévouée corps et âme à tous les soirs à sa passion.
    Courage..

  19. Holly says:

    Sending my deepest condolences to Sarah’s family and friends during this difficult time.

  20. Steveguna says:

    Watch Ka last month. It was one of my favorite Cirque du soleil show in Las Vegas other than O. My deepest condolences to Sarah’s family and friends during this difficult time. You bring joy and excitement to lots of people. May you rest in peace.

  21. Yvette DeZalia says:

    Dearest Mathieu and Family
    My heart has been broken for you since I heard the news of Sarah’s accident. I am sending my love and prayers to express my profound sympathy.
    This poem by Maya Angelou reminded me so much of how much Sarah’s spirit and character have formed such an indelible impression on so many that I wanted to share it with you.
    With Much Love.

    “When Great Trees Fall”

    When great trees fall,
    rocks on distant hills shudder,
    lions hunker down
    in tall grasses,
    and even elephants
    lumber after safety.

    When great trees fall
    in forests,
    small things recoil into silence,
    their senses
    eroded beyond fear.

    When great souls die,
    the air around us becomes
    light, rare, sterile.
    We breathe, briefly.
    Our eyes, briefly,
    see with
    a hurtful clarity.
    Our memory, suddenly sharpened,
    examines,
    gnaws on kind words
    unsaid,
    promised walks
    never taken.

    Great souls die and
    our reality, bound to
    them, takes leave of us.
    Our souls,
    dependent upon their
    nurture,
    now shrink, wizened.
    Our minds, formed
    and informed by their
    radiance,
    fall away.
    We are not so much maddened
    as reduced to the unutterable ignorance
    of dark, cold
    caves.

    And when great souls die,
    after a period peace blooms,
    slowly and always
    irregularly. Spaces fill
    with a kind of
    soothing electric vibration.
    Our senses, restored, never
    to be the same, whisper to us.
    They existed. They existed.
    We can be. Be and be
    better. For they existed.”

  22. Joseph says:

    I didn’t know ‘Sasoun,’ but when I saw the news I was heartbroken. My thoughts and prayers will be with the family forever.

    Love,
    Joseph

  23. RM says:

    Did not know Sarah personally but got deeply impressed by her story, imense talent and dedication. Such a loss, her legacy, however, is huge. Her children should know that their mom will always love them dearly. They should be fond of her memory and long lasting legacy. She touched so many lives, in so many ways…
