She worked as a waitress at the Town Diner in Coatesville where she met her husband, and later Zynn's Diner in Thorndale.
Sally loved music, especially Polish songs and polka, and was a skilled cook who enjoyed preparing meals for family and friends. She also liked spending time outdoors, particularly camping and fishing with her husband and family in Maryland.

In addition to her husband and parents, she was predeceased by her sisters, Helen Farkas, Jennifer Ray, and Eleanor Suhobrus.
A graveside service will be held at 10:30 am on Monday, July 14, 2025 at St. Cecilia's Cemetery, 901 Blackhorse Hill Road, Coatesville.
