Sarah "Sally" Monahan passed away peacefully in her sleep on July 24, 2023 after a prolonged battle with Alzheimer's Disease. Born to Wendell and Blanche (Doty) Hinton on April 30, 1949, she grew up in Plainville, CT. A graduate of Plainville High School in 1967, Sally then went to nursing school and became an L.P.N.

To her patients, Sally was not just a caregiver, but a companion, a confidante, and a dependable source of comfort. Her unwavering patience, kindness, and compassion left a lasting impact on each life that she touched. Her memory will live on in the hearts of those she served, and her influence will continue to be felt by the many lives she changed for the better.
