Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Sally during my frequent visits to South Portland Nursing Home. She was a truly lovely, vibrant woman, who always had a kind word, or an interesting life story. Sending heartfelt condolences to Joe and Jane, Linda, Joe and their Families.

Our mother, Georgette, and Sally were roommates at the SouthPortland Nursing Home for over a year. Sally had become part of our family as well. Such a joy every time we visited mom to also visit Sally. Always a good story and a glass of wine at 4. We have lost our Georgette and you have lost your Sally. We share in your loss. Two sweet women who have spent time with us and each other on this Earth. We miss them greatly.
