At that time she established Sally Forte Realty, which she grew to a successful real estate business. She was active in the Yankeetown community and a member of the Yankeetown Republican club. She enjoyed the old Florida charm of Yankeetown and was an advocate for SaveYankeetown.com.
Sally is preceded in death by her husband, William (Bill) Cox.

She will be deeply missed and the family would like to thank the caregivers at the Seven Rivers Medical Center and Inverness HPS Hospice. A private memorial will be held.
