Sally loved cooking traditional Ukrainian and Polish dishes for her family, especially on holidays and for breakfast. She enjoyed designing and sewing handmade garments and had great sense of style. Sally spent many days in Central Park or Washington Square Park in New York City and Centennial Park in Kingman with her cherished toy poodles and taking walks with friends. Sally was a devout Catholic and member of St. Mary's Church.
