Our family thought a lot of Sally. We enjoyed her many visits to Piney Creek. She always had a sweet smile and kind word. God be with all her family and give each of you comfort and peace

Sally will be missed by all who knew her. I went to school with her at Gossan Mines (Iron Ridge) elementary school. Loved growing up in that part of the world.

To a dear Family, your mom was one of the kindest and most gentle person I have ever known . I highly respected Sally for her loving and most of all for her steadfast faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. She is now with the Lord having the time of her life especially with those who have already gone on and help prepare for her homecoming. What a time they are all having! She will be greaty missed by all who knew her. God Bless each one of You!
