Your great smile will be missed by all. It was my pleasure having the opportunity to of spent time with you. You will be missed by all.
Mike: We were so sad to hear that Sally was sick, and heartbroken to hear she passed. May the memories and special times you shared together help you heal. You both were the nicest neighbors my parents could have ever had in Huntley. I am so happy the 4 of you always stayed in touch and that you took the time to get together several times a year, and enjoy each other's company. I will never forget Sally's big, contagious smile, and the awesome chats we had in Huntley when we visited my parents. She was just always the sweetest to the girls and Joanna really took a liking to Sally. They could hang outside and talk for hours. She was a special lady and I wouldn't doubt for a second that she's in heaven right now taking Millie for a walk! Hugs to you Mike, cherish the memories of special and sweet Sally forever.
