Sara Tuttle

Sara Christine Belle Tuttle, 22, of Salem, passed away in an automobile accident on Tuesday, December 7, 2021. Visitation with family present will begin at 1:30 pm on Saturday, December 11 with a 2:30 pm prayer service at Kinzley Funeral Home in Salem.

Sara was born April 12, 1999 in Sioux Falls, SD to Robert and Sindy (Keeler) Tuttle. She was raised in Salem, SD and attended McCook Central School. At the age of 14, she moved to Dell Rapids where she attended Dell Rapids High School and enjoyed cheerleading and Cheer Competition.

If you knew Sara personally, you know that her life was filled with ups and downs. Yet, Sara was very strong willed, bold, and determined. She did not live by anyone’s rules other than her own. When she was just 19, she gave birth to her son Camden. Her entire life revolved around him and, according to her, he is the best thing that ever happened to her. Sara strived to find the good in the simple things of life such as the bright colors of sunflowers and daisies. She also, most recently, attended the motorcycle safety course to acquire her motorcycle endorsement. She was looking forward to owning a motorcycle of her own this summer.

At the time of her passing, Sara worked at Custom Truck Equipment as the office manager. She was very proud of her job and made so many friends throughout the company. In addition to her career, she was looking forward to joining the Sioux Falls Storm “Lightning Girls” cheerleading squad this upcoming season.

Sara is survived by: her son, Camden; parents, Sindy (Paul) Entringer of Dell Rapids and Robert Tuttle of Seattle, WA; siblings, Amanda (Marcus) Nelson of Garretson and Joseph Tuttle of Sioux Falls; step-siblings, Tyler Entringer, Makaila (Wes) Carey, Brenden Entringer (Shay) and Carrington Entringer (Isaak); grandparents, Susan MacAvoy, Robert (Mary) Tuttle, and Ramona Entringer; niece, Emily and nephew Ashtin as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins. She is preceded in death by her grandparents, Rita (Lloyd) Allen, Joseph Keeler, and Bobby MacAvoy.
