Sally was a good friend of mine from high school days to the present. I talked to her on the phone a day or two before Judy had to tell me that she had passed away. Very sorry to hear that.

Aunt Sal was a fun person who always brought energy to any gathering. There were a few times where she was my "mom away from home" when I went to IC. I had a safety net that others who were away from home didn't have. I never passed up a chance to stop over for a home-cooked meal either. She could do it all!

Dear Marc and family. I have so many fond memories of Sally and was so saddened when I heard of her passing. I first met Sally when I was at the W State branch at JSB. Sally worked for Ray Lahood and came to the bank for business and also to visit with me. My husband was injured while serving in the USCG and Sally would listen to my concerns about my husband's injury. She being the kind and wonderful person offered to get Ray Lahood involved to help me get Tom approved for disability after being denied several times and just like that he was approved. So kind and caring. Our friendship and business relationship continued several more years as we compared stories about our children and she would share stories of her grandkids too. I will always cherish the times I spent talking with Sally. God Bless You Sally and
my sympathies to all her family.

Dear Marc and family,
We were so sorry to hear of Sally's passing. She was such a kind, friendly, creative, fun and joyful person. She would brighten any day, and make everyone feel welcome. We were especially touched by her kindness to our kids when they lost their Yow grandparents, and will always cherish the memories of kicking bags of ingredients around your yard to make ice cream on a hot summer day.
We hope the wonderful memories made over a lifetime help fill the void she leaves behind. She will be greatly missed.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Fondly, Allen, Rasha, Alexander and Sarah Yow

To Marc and family, I was saddened to learn of Sally's passing. I worked for IRS for many years in Springfield and worked with Sally on a regular basis during her time working for Cong Michel and LaHood. I was the contact point for resolving tax issues from her constituents. She was always a pleasure to work with and I always enjoyed our meetings. She was a true advocate for those contacting her for assistance and I appreciated her professional manner in dealing with me.
My sincere condolences for your loss.
