Sally was always a lady. She will certainly be missed by all those she blessed with her presence. I went to school with her & she was always her own person, full of spunk. God has gained another angel.

Sally, we had some fun times when we were teenagers. I’m sorry we didn’t stay in touch. May God bless and comfort your family. An old Jewish goodbye “May your name be a blessing” 💕
