I have known Sallie since Bonham. She was such a sweet girl, and truly called her my friend. I lost track of her until a few years ago and was so happy to speak with her. Go Rest High in Heaven Sallie.

Sallie was her maternal Grandma Sallie Thompson's namesake. She was a happy and uplifting person and was sweet and kind to everyone. She's is with her Lord and Savior now. I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending prayers to her family.
