This was truly a great big shock. I met Sally years ago as she became a faithful shopper at Kroger.

Sally Bragg was an effective and GOOD principal at Stough Elementary School where two of our daughters, Ashlee and Allison attended. My late wife, Margaret (Margo) Simmons Kirk, was very involved in the school as Co-Chair of the PTA several years! Sally was very supportive of her teachers which helped in hiring and retention. We thank her for her superior leadership and common sense leadership.
