I miss my dear friend, Sally.  We knew each other since the fourth grade, both ended up in the Pacific Northwest, and continued to share our ups and downs through visits, letters, phone calls and eventually texts.  I remember her every year with a mass on her birthday.  My love to Daniel and Patrick - I think of you often.  Your mom was the dearest friend anyone could have.

Sally, I think of you often, and wish you were still around..my walking buddy..although I can't walk much myself these days, I have fond memories of the times we shared.

I am so sad to learn this news, late as it is. Sally was my neighbor in Shoreline and we often walked and talked together. We were both cancer survivors at the time and did our best to stay fit and keep on going. After she retired and moved, we kept in touch over the phone a bit and she was always her positive, upbeat self. 
I wondered why I had not heard from her and now I know that she and Ross are at peaceful rest together. I will miss her and cherish our times together. My sincere condolences to her family. 

Sally and I met 64 years ago, and we've been friends ever since.
We took early trips together after high school, corresponded when she moved from LA, then phone calls, visits when she came to town to check on her brother,  and more recently. . .e-mails. You cannot replace this. I will miss her.

So sorry to hear about Sally passing!  We talked to her on July 20th in the Yakima Subaru waiting area, while our vehicles were being serviced.  She was upbeat as always!  She always had a smile and a nice word to say.   Sadly she told us that Ross had passed away the week before.   We didn't know that.  Sally and Ross were neighbors to our good friends in Cle Elum, so that's how we met them.
We send our condolences to both Sally and Ross' families.
Sincerely,
Brenda & Robert Deeds

Sally and I shared many stories that illustrated her love for her family and her faith. I last spoke with her on the 12th and that was when she told me of her diagnosis. Even then, her joy was contagious. It is hard to believe that just a little over a week later she would be gone. I will miss her.

Sally's birthday was July 25, 1942 not January.  My love and prayers are with Daniel and Tara and Jax and Patrick and Crystal.  She was a very wonderful part of my life for 40 years.
