I think of Sally and her wonderful family so often. I still count on her great advice and look to her for support. When I'm in Maine, she walks with me. I so miss my friend Sal.

Sally shared a recipe for a wonderful molasses oatmeal bread that her grandmother’s cook used to make in Nova Scotia many years ago. We have made it throughout the years and it remains a family favorite. This last weekend my husband and I made it with our young twin granddaughters and later that day shared the recipe with my husband’s brother as he had many fond memories associated with it and sadly had misplaced it. We think of Sally every time we make this and sadly just heard of her passing. We haven’t seen her since the 60’s but think of her each time we bake this bread with story. We send our condolences to all her family and will remember her as if she was still 18 years old with long brown hair, and eyes that smiled with sincerity. At that time she was deciding where she would go for college and was making life choices We will continue to fondly remember her

I was blessed to have Sally as my neighbor for about a year and a half. In that short time I learned of her great love of her children and her grandchildren. I loved seeing her outside in her chair keeping that pretty tan going ! When she would get out her helmet and load her bike up she always had that beautiful smile on her face, she knew she was going to have a beautiful bike ride on this lovely Island. The celebration of life for her was wonderful she was so loved by her family and her church community. I will miss seeing her little round window light glowing every night, it was a comforting sight and I smiled every time I saw it. May God continue to walk beside you all.

Sally is a bright light in the universe. I was lucky to get to know her when our toddler sons, Jimmy and Danny played together. Our orbit’s diverged but I fondly remember her as merry, kind and very wise. I hope the knowledge of her life, very well lived, lessens the heartbreak for all who love her.

I am so very sorry and saddened to learn of Sally’s passing.
When I think about your mom the first thing I see is her bright smile and easy laugh. She was a smart, thoughtful, generous, loving and devoted wife and mother. She had an aura of quiet strength about her that I always admired. I truly wish I had gotten to know her better.
I wish I had the words to lessen the pain that you are feeling. Just know Jim and Kati that you are in our thoughts and we are sending love to you both and to the rest of your families.
Much love, Terry and Scott

It was such unsettling and extremely sad news to hear of Sally’s passing. My heart goes out to Kati, Jimmy, and all the family and friends who were fortunate to love and know her. Sally was such a wonderful, kind woman who had a twinkle in her eye and a smile on her face. I have long been sorry that we had lost touch through the years. That said, 25 years ago she sent us a housewarming plant when we moved from Amherst to Colorado. Today that plant is still thriving and I honestly think of Sally and her thoughtfulness on a daily basis. Accept our sincere condolences, Nancy, Les, Zach and Molly

I was very lucky to have Sally be a big part of my life for some of my most formative years. She was beyond generous and loved her children and family intensely. If you met Sally, you were blessed, she was incredibly special. Sending my love to Kati and Jim and the rest of her family.

Sal shared herself with so many ways. Our relationship was simple and filled with both laughter and tears. Our times together are now very precious memories. I will always treasure them. Sally was my friend.
