Sally will be remembered for her gentle spirit, her unwavering devotion to her family, and the simple joys she embraced in life. Whether it was sharing stories, offering comforting words, or enjoying the peace of nature, Sally brought calm and care into the lives of those around her.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow; I wish for you the sunrise of tomorrow. My life's been full, I savored much; Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief; Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift your heart and share with me -- God wanted me now, God set me free.
Her memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved her.
