At the Robertson County Sheriff’s Office, she touched the lives of everyone. She always showed up early to her shift with a smile on her face. Savanna was hardworking and cared deeply for others.

Savanna’s world revolved around her nephews as they meant more to her than words can describe. She loved spending time with the boys and being their aunt. Savanna was a loving sister to her siblings and was always a source of positivity. Savanna had a spunky, vibrant personality that was paired with a servant’s heart. She also really enjoyed going out to eat and cuddling with her loyal dog Chloe.
