Jeanne Walters Sayers, 62, of Golden Valley, passed away unexpectedly Sept. 21, 2013, due to complications of lung cancer, according to an online obituary.
She was a lawyer and an insurance professional, but first of all, she was a cowgirl.

She was warm, caring, generous, spontaneous and stubborn. Her passion was riding horses, particularly her Arabian, Phar. She was a wonderful wife, sister, daughter, and friend to so many, according to Legacy.com.
