Dear Family,
So sorry for the lost of your Mother. Sally was always good to me, we had good times
talking, laughing and always telling jokes. We will all miss her very much.
I know that to be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord,
I know Kathy and Bernice were there waiting on her.
I love you Family and ever anything you need just call me
Love Bill & Ruth Phillips
