Don, Jim, Debbie & Tammy,
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time.
Sally was a "special lady".
She had the special knack of always making you feel welcomed.
She was such a joy to talk with.
I will always remember her with a warm smile and an infectious laugh.
The world will seem a little more lonely without her presence.
With love & fondest memories,
Bob Roche
