Not sure what to say?

My Aunt Sallie was a very special person who always radiated joy! Despite all of her physical challenges she allowed her faith in Christ to lead her boldly into each and every daily adventure... and she NEVER complained. Sallie was creative, stylish, smart, gracious, loving and FUN! I loved her dearly and will keep her memory in my heart.

I am sorry to learn of Sallie´s passing. I had not seen her for many years, but have fond memories of high school years.

I knew Sally from St. Philip´s Episcopal Church the last several years. Her great smile to me, her graceful and put together presence was consistent and she always had knowledge to share during our women´s Bible Study! I could tell she was very content in our Lord. She will be missed. May God give her family and friends peace and joy.

Aunt Sallie was a gifted interior decorator and a gracious woman of faith. I (Rondi) looked up to her, not simply because of her elegant height, but because of the way she persevered through many trials and ended her uphill race still trusting in her Lord and Savior. Mark and I are both thrilled to know she is in Jesus' presence, and can't wait to see her in her resurrection body someday. Her artistic eye will surely be delighted by the glories of the new heavens and earth!

Sallie was my aunt on my mothers side of the family. She happened to be one of my favorite relatives because of her positive personality. She was always fun and upbeat. She battled through some tough medical challenges late in life without complaining. I know she adored her son Lane and she will be missed by a lot of friends and family. We hope to have a memorial service for her in Memphis at the Church of the Holy Communion (Episcopal) soon.
