Lou, Doug and Kirk,

I was so sad to hear of Sally's passing. She was like a mother to me growing up. Always so loving and caring with her warm loving smile. Even when she would be mad at Kirk and me for getting into trouble. I haven't seen her since moving to Texas. My last memories of her were her and Lou dancing and having a good time at the AMVETS with some good friends. Well now she is Dancing in Heaven! Can't wait to see you again Sally. Love you. Lou, Kirk and Doug and your families, may God give you peace and comfort during this very difficult time.

Love Tammy Dwyer Haigh

Sally and I were former neighbors while growing up and attending Brownsville High School. I had lost all contact with Sally. Low & behold, while attending a Legends concert in Myrtle Beach with my mother, there was Sally & Lou were sitting directly behind us---50 years later!
I enjoyed the unique tribute to Sally.
My deepest sympathy to Lou and family.
May God bless you!

My aunt has begun a new journey, as will my Uncle Lou. I will miss seeing her on my periodic RV trips north to PA. A warmer and loving person there never was. I was fortunate to see her on many family trips as she grew into a young woman and married a wonderful young man. As her family grew we had many good times together. She is the last of my Dad's family. I can still hear her voice calling me "Charlsey" and I know that my Dad who gave her away as a bride would be proud of her. Heaven has received a wonderful woman, my Aunt Sally

I cannot express our sadness at the loss of Sally. She was such a good friend for so many years and a fellow classmate as well. We will certainly miss her. May she Rest In Peace.
