Sally's obituary

Sally Jean Bennett passed away on December 19, 2020. Her work here is done. Her Director gave her a casting call she couldn’t refuse. She will finally be singing and dancing with a body as eternally beautiful as her soul. This role comes with a huge sign-on bonus, a reunion with family and friends she has not seen in a long time. This opportunity takes her to a wonderful place where she will be socializing, dancing, writing and cheering for baseball to her heart’s content. Music, laughter and love are guaranteed. Food is delicious and she doesn’t expect to ever gain an ounce.

Her time here was such a blessing to everyone she met. Her wit was legendary and her courage was profound. During her last five years, while completely bound to a wheelchair she wrote hundreds of encouraging greetings, published a book of her poems (Why Me? Yes, Me!) helped design and move to her ADA home, continued to travel, held all five of her great grandchildren, and celebrated her 60th wedding anniversary.

We will forever be grateful to have shared life with someone who played each role to such perfection: Sally is survived by her sweetheart, Bill, her sisters, Joyce, Sandra and Jennifer, her brother, Gerald, her children, Brian and Wenda, six grandchildren, five greatgrandchildren, and 25 adoring nieces and nephews.

Sally will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
