Sally left performing to raise a family in Trenton, NJ but never left dance, teaching at Dance Spectrum in West Windsor and Glen Roc Dance Studios in Ewing. She continued to study in Princeton and NYC returning to the stage in 1979 with the touring company of Ballroom. After years of dance, Sally found a new avenue of artistic expression in the garden. In 1995 she graduated with the second class of the Rutgers Master Gardeners of Mercer County. She was an active member and worked for many years as part of the team that maintained the gardens at Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ. Her own gardens gave her much joy and needed outlet for her energy and creativity. Her life was enhanced by an ever present love of cats which she shared with her mother and her daughter. Her little cat, Magic, now lives with her granddaughter. Sally is survived by her four children, John and his wife Betty, Kevin and his wife Patti, Tim and his wife Lorraine and Teri and her husband Andy Ryan; her six grandchildren, Brittany, Jessica, Katherine, Jack, Joseph and Banan and her many cherished friends who will miss her dearly.
