Sally grew up in the First Congregational Church of Auburn, Massachusetts where she sang in the children's choir. Sally was a Brownie, a Girl Scout as well as a member of the Order of the Rainbow Girls.
Sally was an active member of Inman United Methodist Church. She was a member of the church choir and the Circle of Faith. For several years she was the President of the United Methodist Women's Organization. She was a member of the Better Homes and Gardens Club, and the Inman Rotary Club. She enjoyed making over two dozen large banners for the church. Her hobbies included different kinds of needlework, painting, and putting together jigsaw puzzles.
She loved creating different things to do with completed puzzles. When they moved up to the big old house Sally did all of the wallpapering and the sewing. She loved having several projects lined up to do.
She earned her retirement from the state of working for 20 years as the Branch Supervisor of the Inman Branch Library. She hoped that Inman will have the first Peach Museum soon. They deserve it.
Sally was born in New England and she loved it but she did settle into the South easily. She hopes that Heaven for her will be spending time in both places!
A private burial will be held at Roselawn Memorial Gardens. Friends and family are invited to a celebration of her life at 2:00 PM on Saturday, September 28, 2019 at Inman United Methodist Church.
