Publish in a newspaper

With saddened hearts, we announce the passing of Dr. Sally Jeanne Byrd, 66, of Flagler Beach, who passed away unexpectedly on July 18, 2024.
Sally knew no strangers. She loved God, nature, and found beauty in everything. Her profound faith and connection to God were evident in every aspect of her life. She was extremely independent, always searching for the next person she could pray over, offer her advice, or share her health products with. Known globally as a Doctor of Nutrition, Sally traveled the world and touched countless lives with her fearless and non-judgmental spirit.
Her love of God flowed through her into others, bringing light and hope wherever she went. She loved her family deeply and always placed others first, embodying the true spirit of selflessness. Sally recharged her spirit through grounding her body and soul with walks on the beach, collecting shells and watching the sun rise. Sally enjoyed the time she assisted with releasing sea turtles into the ocean. Her life and legacy were marked by an unwavering dedication to leaving a clean and natural carbon foot plan on earth. She made each of them feel uniquely understood and cared for. Sally was always smiling with contagious joy, a master scuba diver whose smile lit up every room she entered.
Sally's bravery, courage, and joy for life were inspirational. She was a healer in every sense, always ready to offer herself in any capacity whether through her boundless compassion or professional expertise. Her legacy and love will live on in the hearts of those she touched, continuing to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Heritage Funeral and Cremation Service is in charge of her arrangements

Sally, it was such a BLESSING to have had met you a decade ago in one of the shows I attended as an esthetician. Knowing when I met you it was a divine appointment. You embraced me as a long lost friend with the joy of the Lord. We had 2 things in common... Jesus and Health.... I a long time believer and user of silver was refreshed to find a commonality with her. ALWAYS teaching others the benefits and a natural approach to health of those we love and those we met. On many occasions we chatted and had a one on one with plans to get together just for lunch. Your source of Faith and strength was a benchmark to HOW life can be with the mindset of serving the Lord despite the unknown of tomorrow. My sister in Christ... I know I will see you again!!! In the mean time you are SORELY missed!

My deepest sympathies to Sandy and all of the family. Though I spent so much time at Sallys home in HS and I have not seen Sally since ND High School and only just now learned of her passing. So many good times in and out of School , her smile lit up every room , her heart bigger than that . Rest with peace .

I´m in shock, we haven´t connected since my birthday but that´s not unusual, with the speed in which she moved. But tonight I stopped in the middle of my SS lesson. No answer so I´ve landed here. And my dear Sally is with her Lord.
Her life was a demonstration of Love, for the Lord and all of His creation.
Sally, my husband & I started
Progressive Health Strategies in 1996
Sally & Eugene are with the Lord
I battle on.

I've known Sally for almost 40 years from the natural foods industry. She was a total professional and a beautiful soul. She'll be sadly missed.
Travel well Sally.

Omg Sally I am just hearing about this. Was in desperate need to place a silver order and couldn´t reach you. Called ABL and they told me of your passing. I am in shock! You were a huge light in my life and so thankful to have known you. So thankful for all the knowledge you have imparted to me about natural healing and silver. I know you are in Heaven rejoicing and in such amazement of its beauty. You were an angel on this planet!
Look over us Sally

I just heard the shockingly sad news of Sally Byrd's death!! This world has lost a shining star, but her work and love and joy will be remembered by everyone who had the privilege to enjoy her presence.... even if it was only for a moment. I met Sally about six years ago at Claudia's health food store in Toledo, Ohio and immediately liked her! What a great sense of humor and kind personality that Sally had! We enjoyed conversations and laughter a few more times at Claudia's after that initial meeting. Sally always took time to speak with people and help them even when she was exhausted or very busy. I can hear Jesus saying to Sally: "Well done, thy good and faithful servant." Goodbye, sweet Sally!

I got to know Sally in the late 90´s and found her to be one of the loveliest people on the planet. What a shock!! I always felt that she would live to at least the age of 120 and die of exhaustion from helping others. Serving God and humanity is her legacy, and it´s tragic that she´s not here to continue doing her thing. I have not had the opportunity to speak with Sally in years. If anybody seeing my condolences here who was currently part of her life, I would greatly appreciate it if you would call me. Thanks so much. Ashley C. Gardner, Mt. Pleasant, SC.

I first met Sally when she was working a booth with Jason Naturals in Las Vegas. We had a booth next to hers with American Biotech Labs. I was impressed with her friendly smile, and she seemed like a genuine beautiful person. I introduced my self and we began talking about our products because she was very interested in what we did. She was looking for a change because she was travelling all over the country with Jason and wanted more time I think with her other love of blessing others and ministry. She seemed to me to burning out with all the responsibilities with Jason. I was impressed so much with her I introduced her to our CEO and from there she came on as a consultant and up to the time of her death was over all the East Coast and Texas region for distributors working with American Biotech Labs.
I loved working with her at many of our shows and had many phone conversations with some of her life successes and frustrations of work. I was very glad I had talked with her a couple of weeks before her passing. I wish I could have talked sooner.
Sally we love you and know you are still doing the Lord's work and loving all you come in contact with. I look forward to seeing you again as we pass into the next stage of our life.

I met Sally when I was a buyer at Shaw´s in 2005. Sally was a beautiful person who would do just about anything for anyone that asked for help. She helped me a great deal getting into the Natural Personal Care space. Also being a Naturopathic doctor I was always asking her different things about food and ingredients etc. She was always there to answer. I will do miss bumping into her at Trade shows and dinners with her. I always learned so much! RIP dear Sally.

One of the greatest blessings of my career in the natural health industry, was having the privilege of meeting and befriending Dr. Sally Byrd. She taught me half of what I know about supplements and clean living. It would be an understatement to say that she changed my life, as I quickly saw her as a mentor and spiritual counselor. I am so deeply grateful to have had as much time as I did with her over these past ten years. I will never forget you Sally. I will so miss you and your radiant smile. Thank you for the love and generosity you extended to me.

I met Sally at a job fair in early 1992, I was curious about working for a new health food store opening in my neighborhood called FreshFields. She greeted me, took my hand and walked me over to meet one of the owners. He hired me on the spot for an hourly rate designed for managers in training. And he told me I better be worth it, his plan was to fast track me to management (which he did) Years later I saw the note scribbled on my application "friend of Sally´s".
I attribute my decades long career in natural grocery to Sally. Her warmth and confidence shined through and she was a great example to everyone she worked with. I saw her a few treats ago at expo west and was able to thank her. My heart goes out to her close friends and family.

What I remember most about Sally, is that when she would talk to you, she would lean in. She wanted that close, personal connection. Her love for her friends was always evident in her eyes. Such a special woman who left us far too soon.
