I met Sally just a few short years ago at bridge lessons, and she became a dear friend almost immediately. I cannot say what I admired most about her... Was it that she drove to my place by herself in the dead of winter to play cards? Was it that she was always dressed and coiffed to the nines? Was it the tenacity she showed learning an incredibly challenging card game? Was it that she was always interested in how I was doing? That she thought my boy was an angel? That she spoke her mind? That when I was helping her with her computer I found 999 emails from Facebook when she swore she wasn't on Facebook. Getting her back to her Facebook page to stop those emails was how I learned her age...and it broke her heart that I now knew. She swore me to secrecy...our other bridge mates could never know her age! You made me smile Sally. I will miss so many things about you. But I have a lovely glass bowl on my dining room table that you thought was just what I needed. There it shall stay... - Posted by: Lorraine Baydack (Friend) on: Mar 27, 2017
