Sally was a special friend from Girl Scout camp on through High School, then we were roommates for a little while, too. She was always there with a smile when I ran into her here and there, willing to share news of her life and ask the news of mine. Light goes out of the world when good souls like Sally leave it. So sad for all her family and other friends...

Dear Susie -
I was so sad to hear that Sally had left us so early. Every time I drive through the old neighborhood I think of our group walks to and from middle and high school, and wonderful after school times at your house - paint-by-number, Superman, girl talk. Sally lives on in the fond memories of her classmates.
Love,
Morgan

Dear Classmate Susan and family,

Shocked to hear of yet another classmate's passing. Our MHS Class of 1968 has suffered the loss of so many it is hard to wrap my arms around it. The last time I saw Sally was at JCPenny's in Berlin and had a lovely talk about her life's new changes. I will always be grateful for those special girl talks throughout the years. Sally was a sweet, lovely beautiful person just like you. I will always love ❤ the Plumb twins. My condolences to you and your entire family...
