Not sure what to say?

As you know Sally and I have been friends since September 1956 when we were students at Flora MacDonald College. We did not see each other physically very often but there was many phone conversations, which could easily be 1 or 2 hours long. I will miss Sally very much. She was very special to me. I will be praying for her family that God will comfort them as they grieve their loss of a mother, grandmother, and mother-in-law.

Thinking of you John and family.. May God comfort you during this difficult time.

Ted, my thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. Sally was such a sweet and caring person. Sally, Mary Louise and you were among Becky's closest friends. May she rest in peace.

My former sweet neighbor. Rest in Peace

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. I remember Sally and Mary Louise quite well. I loved going to South Creek as a girl also. My Mother was Rita Potter Tetterton and her Mother was Manilla Day Potter. They was so much laughter when they were together.

Sally was my friend and mentor. She always brought out the best in people and touched hundreds of lives. My life is richer and blessed by knowing this true woman of God who was an inspiration to many. My condolences to her wonderful family.

Sally and I grew up together in Chocowinity and we're good friends. I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious Mother. Please know that all of her family are in my thoughts and in my prayers.

I am so sorry to hear of Ms Sally’s passing. She was such a wonderful, caring and dedicated lady. She will be missed. Prayers of comfort for her family.
