Sally lived her life with a spirit of adventure and a love for animals. An avid horsewoman, she shared many cherished moments with her horses, Cupcake and Whiskey. She was also a devoted caretaker to her beloved dogs, Jake and Grady, and her cats Tiny and Scrappy. Among her many adventures, she treasured her trips on horseback into Yellowstone National Park an experience that reflected her love of nature and courage to embrace life fully.
Sally's strength, compassion and warmth left a lasting impression on all who knew her.
