My heartfelt condolences to Sally's loved ones, A friend who I often crossed paths with in Camel and later at the Cancer Center while we were both receiving treatment.A lovely lady who I will dearly miss.

All my heartfelt condolences to Sally's family and to Sally's lifelong friend Michele Barat and her family. Jane and Tyler Flury

Sally,I was so sad to hear of your passing.I will always treasure your friendship and the memories I have of you. 52 years seemed to have flown by. Until we meet again, your friend and admirer,

Dear Sally,
Ah, the fond memories ... At a beach party, a slumber party, a "game"; you were always a part of whatever was "happening"! And always with a positive attitude - wise beyond your years ...
I'd intended to make and present a lei to you one day - we'd talked about you visiting me in Hawaii ... Instead your lei will be in a place of honor at your Celebration of Life 
Thank you for being my friend at PGHS - you accepted me for me without judgement. 
Warm aloha!

Sally, that beautiful smile and the kindness that you showed to everyone you met will never be forgotten.  Every time our paths crossed after high school you were that same happy person. It was a real honor to have known you. Thank you for the memories, rest in peace.

Sally, may heaven be an even better place with your spirit to bless it. It's been a long time since PGHS but such fond memories of our antics. May your family find comfort in lasting memories.

We will always remember Sally's beautiful smile.  Our prayers are with Sally's family.

Sweet Sally, 
Your courage and zest for life was an inspiration to me over these past couple of physically and emotionally challenging years. The spirit you showed to us way back in our high school days still shone through as you met the end of your life with good humor and pragmatic endeavor. Mostly, I loved the smile that easily spread across your face and the twinkle in your eye as you enjoyed each and every moment you had. No regrets, Sal! You were a great Mom and Grammy. You were a  caring and contributing member of our community making it ever more beautiful with your work and your participation in the Art Center. You were a loyal and forgiving friend and a strong woman. Your time on this earth was good time. My condolences to Jabin and Monty. There is not much harder than losing your mom. I shall miss you, dear Sally.

Sally, I last spoke to you in 65 when the Sea Urchin yearbook came out and I complimented you on the beautiful work you did as the editor. You were one beautiful person, I shall never forget you.

You'll be missed, Sal. The memories of PGHS '65 will continue to live on and you will be remembered always part of the team and life of the times.  Rest from mortality and enjoy your present estate.

Sally, a lifetime since high school. Memories of your always present smile,the twinkle in your eye, your kindness, and your parties! Hoping you are visiting loved ones and old friends. Keeping you and your family in prayer.

Dear Sweet Sally,

You will always be the first girl my brother David had a serious crush on. I will always think of you as a best friend in High School, in good old PG.
May your troubles be at an end , may you find peace and rest.

Love, Debbie Orser

Dear Sally,
I last saw you in High School and remember you with such fondness. You were so natural and comfortable in whatever you were doing, and that isn't so easy for most high school students. You led our pep rallies as "Billy the Breaker", and at times seemed to possess enough team spirit to spread throughout our school. I lived away from the peninsula for many years but never forgot you. Those smiling eyes, followed by a little giggle.... seemed to radiate kindness and good will...I think you are continuing your role in heaven.....I bet you're  looking down on your dear loved ones right now...shouting, "Go Team, you can do it, we are not defeated!"

Sally was always up beat and smiling. She faced the last two years of her life with courage and positive focus and brought so much to so many. She will be missed but her lesson to all of us will last...

Dear Jabin,
As a freshman in high school I felt so awkward and out of place. Your Mom was so sweet to me and I always remembered that. I also thought she was a jewel as our mascot Billy the Breaker.
So sorry for your loss.
PGHS 1968

My cousin Sally was definitely one of a kind.  We grew up having many, many adventures.  As the youngest, our brothers and sisters tried to leave us behind, but it never worked.  As adults our friendship grew even closer.  She accepted her fate, thankful for all her family and friends.  I will miss her.

Dear Sally happened to be my 1st date ever to Monterrey Folk Festival@1962/3. Thoughts and prayer to family. We'll all miss her.

Sally, So many years of laughs and hard work. You were always so interested in me and how I was doing. Always ready with your helping hand, so supportive.  I hope you continue to watch out for me from wherever you are. You had always great sense of putting things together whether it was your outfit or a party. You left us too soon and will be missed  !!!!

Dear Jabin,  I was very sorry to hear about your Mom.  Just remember through you, her spirit will live on.  My sincerest sympathy to you and your family.

My deepest sympathy  Jabin, Monty and family. Sally loved life and this world will be a little less brighter without her in it. God Bless.

Dear Monty and Family.....We were sorry to hear about your loss. Your mom always had good thoughts about people... and helped people ....in every way she could. She was a giver. She will be missed. She is now walking with God .....pain and disease free. God Bless and help the family in this time of loss & sorrow. Linda and Leonard Paschini

Dearest Sally, you were one of the greatest moms in Pacific Grove.  You have been so sweet to me my whole life and always helped me to see the good in things.  Forever in my heart, I love you,  l hope you can tell my dad when you see him in heaven that I love him too. Thank you for being such a precios soul.
Michele Fulton
