Aunt Sally where do I start. You have installed so much in me. I learned from the best. I can remember running down the steps and you would make me go all the way back up to the top. I would have to walk all the way back down them in a quietly way. I would just be laughing at the top until I got almost to the bottem. You would say, "Sound like a bunch of horses running down. I can go on and on. I love you dearly. Give Aunt Tina a hug for me.

So sad to hear about Granny's death. She was my inspiration to live a beautiful and caring life. I enjoyed watching her teach kindergarteners to read and talking with her about teaching young people to sew.

To the family, Ms. Sally had a true gift for helping children grow emotionally, for creativity and engaging others. In addition, her kindness was legendary. While she was not in RSVP, I feel very grateful to have known her as she served with the Foster Grandparent Program (FGP). I hope the many happy memories will assuage your sorrow.

Condolences to the family on your loss. Ms. Sally was one of my first Sunday School teacher and I loved and adored her. I have enjoyed not only having her as a teacher but also as a mentor and as an example of how to live Christ-like. I know she is present with our Lord.
