Sally was my on-line friends for the last 12 years. Although we never met face-to-face, we knew each other very well. She was such a warm, funny, caring woman and we shared many stories, laughter, and tears over the years with a group of friends. So stunned to think that our world is without our Sally. But know she is in the arms of her David. All my love to Kelly and those precious grandchildren - Posted by: Glenda Vandruff (friend) on: Dec 14, 2012

I was so sorry to learn of Sally's passing and will miss her so very much. Don't live in Winnipeg anymore but when we returned for a visit it was so nice to get back together and relive so many memories from our past. Sally you are going to be missed so very much but you are in a better place now, no more pain, and back with David once again. Rest in Peace my very good friend.

A gracious, wonderful woman, and Mother...she will be hugely missed...her smile and warmth, that welcomed all her 'Turbo step-sons' will live forever in her Son, my 'Brother' Kelly. - Posted by: Chris Bisignano (one of her 'step-sons') on: Dec 12, 2012

This is such an accurate portrait of Sally. I will always remember her coming into The Body Shop with my Mother on Irene and Sally Wednesdays. I would always be greeted with a "Hello Sweetheart" and the warmest of hugs. She truly was one of the kindest and most loving women I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. You will be missed by so many people who's lives you have touched. - Posted by: Sharon Braun (Mother's friend) on: Dec 12, 2012
