I was so terribly sorry to learn of Sallie's passing. May it comfort you all to know that she is with God, in a wonderful place and was welcomed by our Lord and all her family and friends that have gone before her. I am sorry I was unable to attend the services but learned of her death afterwards. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
