Known for her outgoing personality and spunky nature, Sally possessed an infectious zest for life. Her presence would light up any room she entered, filling it with laughter and joy. Her family was at the center of Sally's world, and she cherished every moment spent with her loved ones. She could be found many times reading her Bible and conversing with her heavenly Father.

Sally had a variety of interests that brought her tremendous happiness. She had an affinity for classic television shows, particularly the Rifleman, Three Stooges, and keeping up with the latest news. Television provided her with countless hours of entertainment and served as a window into the world beyond her own.

Born into humble beginnings, Sally experienced the hardships of her time, including picking cotton as a child. These experiences shaped her into a strong, resilient individual, always appreciative of life's simple blessings. Sally dedicated herself to caring for others as a nurse aide at Gordon's hospital, touching the lives of countless patients with her warmth and compassion. Later in life, she embarked on a new adventure and ran her own daycare, bringing laughter and kindness into the lives of the children she nurtured.

Sally will be deeply missed by her children, grandchildren, extended family, and friends. Her memory will forever be cherished, her laughter forever echoing in the hearts of those who loved her. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to [charity of choice] in honor of Sally's generous and caring spirit.
