Keith, Holli & Family,
Sally was a loving, giving person and friend, who loved her family more than life itself.
I had the pleasure of calling her my friend. We knew each other threw camping together for many, many years.
Sally, you are leaving a void in my life but I feel blessed for having known you.
Keith, you will miss her fiercely but carry on. She is in a better place, cherish the memories!
Rest in Peace Dear Friend.

In sharing memories, I will miss the homemade fudge you always made for me during deer season. I also remember the day we brought you day Lillies of different colors to add to your garden. Your smile was huge when they bloomed for you. Rest in peace Sally.... You will be missed!!

I am so sorry for your loss. Prayers for all the family. Terri I will always remember when your mom would come to town and I would get a chance to see her most of the time only for a few minutes but she would always make me laugh. I know she will be missed.

To many of us who went to Western she was our school Mom. She was a very dedicated and talented lady who put her heart into everything she did. She was our coach for the guys dance line for Celebration all of my four years at Western High School. She would challenge us guys and we would deliver results. I know we were never easy on her but everything would always turn out amazing. One year she dared us guys to try out for Westernettes and six of us guys did and we had to learn all the routines and had to go through try outs too. We even spent extra time with the girls to learn the dance moves because we were not going to let our Sally Mom down. She installed great values in many of us and always saw our hidden talents and demanded results. To many of us she was our second Mom. My heart goes out to Holli, husband Keith and all of the family. May our fly high Sally.

Mrs. Hecox was the embodiment of a strong, smart, passionate and generous woman. As a coach, albeit a different sport, I try to model my coaching style after Sally. I am so sorry for your loss.

Sally will certainly be missed by family and friends. She was the bond that made her family what it is. Holidays won't be the same without her. Rest well.

Dear Keith and family,
I had the privilege of knowing Sally and spending many years with her and our mutual friends at the Miss Michigan Pageants in Muskegon. Sally was always the busiest, but also the friendliest person. So many memories that I will keep forever.
So very sorry for your loss. You are all in my prayers.
Sincerely,
Judy Williams

Sally truely was an inspiration to me. She pushed me further and further to believe in myself and what I could accomplish. I had the joy of competing in 2 pagents with her. I didn't even sign up for them. She signed me up and told me to show up at this place one night for a meeting lol. Plus being on the Westernettes was very very hard work but she always had a way of making those long rehearsals fun. I am sure she is in heaven having a ball teaching some group a new routine. Bless her and her family. What a wonderful and lovely woman that inspired many.

How do I even begin to pay tribute to this amazing woman? She was my pompon coach in high school, kickline Director for WHS Celebration, Executive Director for the Miss Auburn Scholarship Program when I competed and throughout my year of reign as Miss Auburn, including when I competed at Miss Michigan. She continued to be a part of my life, as she was one of my mom´s best friends (there´s no doubt a party going on in heaven where these two are finally reunited), and my sister was/is best friends with her daughter, Holli. I would not be the person I am today, without her mentorship, guidance and influence.
Sally, you taught me so much more than dance routines, poise, grace, stage presence and confidence ... you taught me life lessons ... Thanks for the wonderful memories! I´m so very grateful to have known Sally, and blessed to have her in my life!
Prayers for her family and loved ones, as they grieve the loss of this beautiful lady.

Sally and I have been friends for close to 40 years. We've done many things together. We directed and produced the Miss Auburn Pageant together. We went to the Miss Michigan Pageant together for years and always had great times. One great memory was driving to the Miss America Pageant in our van with two other ladies-what fun. Sally had such a passion to help the girls in the pageants. Because of Sally, I always put make-up on every morning, even now! We have laughed together, cried together, traveled together, even shared the same hotel room many times.
In the last few years we have not seen each other as much but have had many lengthy phone calls. I am so thankful I and Ron were able to stop and visit with Sally and Keith just a month ago. Always so fun to see them.
I am so blessed to have had Sally as a great friend. Will immensely miss you forever. Love Sharon Wenz

I am sorry for the loss Of Sally. She was a wonderful lady who was there for my family during the passing of my father Richard Dick Haas. With out Keith and Sally I don't think the Haas family would have gotten through that tragic time in 78 .I will never forget.

Sally was a wonderful role model and mentor to so many young women, myself included! She coached me to find confidence in grace during some of my most formative years. I will forever be grateful to her for that gift, which has served me well through my adult years. She also gave the BEST hugs and had the best laugh. Her legacy will live on through countless strong, successful and powerful women who are all undoubtedly making a difference in this world!

Grandma was the sweetest woman, and went above and beyond to people please. We called her a "food pusher" because she always made sure everyone was good and full. I will miss coming over and being handed a Hershey's candy bar (and maybe a $20 bill to boot). I'm also going to miss our annual Super Bowl party. She got to see her beloved Tom Brady win many times, much to my chagrin. Love you forever grandma
