I hope you know and understand that my thoughts are close at hand. If memories stay within the thoughts and love within the heart, then how can it be truly said that loved ones ever part? I hope there will be some comfort in these words. Sally will be sorely missed and my sincerest sympathy to all of you. My parents and I always loved Sally.
