Sally was such a sweet, beautiful and compassionate lady. I’ve missed her at our family dinners. She was a tremendous help with me in the kitchen and smiled that pretty smile the entire time. All that knew her will remember her sweetness, tenderness and devotion as a wife, mother, sister, friend and animal lover. We are all blessed to have had the privilege to know her.
Thinking of your family at this sad time. I loved working with Sally at CT&T many years ago.. Mattie Bullock and WB
Sally was one of the sweetest woman I know. She was the kind of person who had unconditional respect and love for everyone she met. The Bible would say in Proverbs 31 10-31 that she is a virtuous woman. May Almighty God comfort and bless you Billy and George in these days. I love you both.
Billy, my thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. Sally was a precious soul and I call it a privilege to have known her. She will be missed. Heaven is alive with joy to have welcomed her home.
To George, and all the family, please accept my condolences in the passing of your love one. My prayers are with you and for you.
