Sally Soles Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Willig Funeral Home & Crematory on Dec. 16, 2025.
On December 14, 2025, Sally J. (Judd) Soles, 83, of McKeesport, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully at her home, surrounded by loving family and friends, after a journey with Alzheimer's. Born on August 11, 1942, she was the daughter of the late Rose and Eugene Judd. In 1960, Sally married the love of her life, William (Billy) Soles, and together they built a family filled with devotion, humor, and deep connection. Sally lived life on her own terms. Through her years, she worked as a hairdresser, a role that perfectly suited her creativity and her gift for making others feel seen and cared for. She loved cooking, entertaining, decorating, and especially dancing, which brought her joy until she was no longer able to walk. With a generous spirit and colorful, sparkling sense of style, Sally's eyes truly lit up a room, and her warmth made others feel welcome and well cared for. She is survived by ex-husband, William (Billy) Soles; twin sons, Kevin (Lori) Soles; Keith (Sharon) Soles; daughter, Kim Soles of Philadelphia and son, Kurt Soles (Sara Salvador), and grandchildren, Leila Mitchell, Lindsey Soles, and Kara Soles. In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by her mother Rose Judd, sister Darlene Wagner, and grandson Bradley Soles. Family and friends will be received at Willig Funeral Home & Crematory on Tuesday, December 16, 2025, from 10 a.m. until the time of service at 1 p.m., in the funeral home chapel. At the families request a private entombment will be held in McKeesport & Versailles Cemetery. The family extends heartfelt gratitude to her caring friends, and the caregivers, aides, nurses, doctors, and staff at Community Life, McKeesport, for their compassionate support and care. Condolences and memories may be shared at www.willigfuneralhomecremationservices.com. Charles A. Danforth, Supervisor To send flowers to the family of Sally, please visit our floral store.
