To Sally's family: You had a lovely talented mother. She provided a lot of joy to all her friends here in St. Louis. We would all gather around the piano often to sing and socialize at her Mom's house. We will all miss her but know she is in a much better place now. Rest in peace my dear friend.

I was lucky enough to take care of Sally's hair for the last couple years. She was a lovely lady, I truly enjoyed when she came in. She always was so kind and thoughtful. She will be missed.
