I managed two small stores in Franklin so I visited Sally and HR Dumplins frequently. Sally knew I had my daughter's portrait painted by Walter (Bunn ) Gray and I encouraged her to have hers painted by Bunn. She loved it. We loved Sally. So sorry to see this lovely lady gone from Main Street. She will be sorely missed.

My heart goes out to the family. I have many wonderful fun memories working for Sally for 10 years as a "Dumplin Twin". My thoughts and prayers go out to Bob and Betty and the rest of her family.

May the lovely memory of Sally Franklin Poe be kept alive by all her family and friends. Although I never met this grande dame in person, I have heard much and know that she was truly a pillar of the community, serving in hospital work and many charities. She also was a trailblazer in women in business and we have much to thank her for. Long live her memory, kind deeds and charitable works! Jean Latter (friend of Rebecca and Mike)

To Bob, Betty and Family....
We just heard the news and cannot believe that the exuberant Sally, whom I spoke with just last week, proudly wearing her red, white and blue, is in the arms of Jesus this week.
Our love thoughts and prayers go out to you all!
