It was with great sadness to learn of Sallie Ruth´s passing. Our Heavenly Father dispatched his angels to escort her to her Heavenly home. I´ve known Sallie since grade school at M M Burdell. Graduated with her from P G Appling, `64 class. We also worked together at the Medical Center. She was a true angel of God. I will miss running into her shopping for the grands. Rest in perfect peace, my friend.

My heart was really broken when I got the news of Sallie Ruth's passing. This angel gained her wings. Her smile was so contagious. My sister in love. She always treated me like one of the family. I'm going to miss her. Rest my sister. No more pain. God has his angel
