Not sure what to say?

Dear Kim, Kam, Keith and Family,

We're so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. We shared many good times together so long ago. Lorena Hintz and Stacy Hintz Patton.

Kam and Keith - so sorry to hear about your mom. It does bring back great memories of practice at Edison and winning loads of Supersonics games. Your mom and dad were not going to accept anything less than everything we had at practice and in games. I am so happy for that. So much fun. We learned respect for the game and our teammates. I carried that attitude into so many things in my life, but most of all my years coaching soccer at BASA, Vardar and John Glenn. It was also fun to work with...

I was a friend of Sally's years ago when she worked at Michigan Bell Telephone Company, in Bay City. She was always on top of everything that was going on and always fun to be with. My deepest sympathy to her family.

Dear Kam, Keith and Kim. We are sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Hearing about her coaching in your younger years is inspiring. God bless her. She was always very welcoming to Karen, Amanda and I and we are thankful for it. Your mother set the highest of standard for dinner rolls and Banana Cream Pie. I will forever look at them and say they dont look Sallys. God Bless you and your family.

Dear Kim, Kam , Keith and Family

We were so very sorry to hear this sad news, and want to offer our sincerest sympathies. Your mother was a great person who seem to accomplish every goal she set her sights on by the combination of her talent, determination, and drive. We will always cherish our visits to Bay City, and the love and good times at Sally and Bill's. We wish we were closer at this very difficult time, but will keep you close in our thoughts and our prayers.
Love -...

Kim, Kam, and Keith, My deepest sympathies to you and your families. I have such fond memories of your mom or as I called her "Sally baby" because of her nickname for me while playing basketball. It was always a pleasure to run into her at a restaurant or in the store, we would talk and and catch up. She was quite a gal, and I will always remember with fondness and a smile.


Dear Kim, Kam, Keith and family . . . Sincere condolences for your great loss. I have fond memories of visits with Sally and Bill in Bay City. Keeping you close in thought and prayer.

I met Sally at Cartel and we immediately became friends. I loved the fact that she was so feisty and always had a comeback. I only had the privilege of spending three weeks with her but I will always remember her. God Bless her and the entire family.

We have some happy memories of being with you and your family.
