It’s so hard to find the words for this tragic loss. Sorry just isn’t enough. Know that our hearts are hurting for your family. We are so grateful for our family like friendship and we so many great memories. Losing Sally will leave a forever hole in our hearts. We pray you all find peace and comfort during this difficult time and going forward. Please lean on us as we are here for you forever. We love you and the Gocohoes will remain strong just as Sally would want us to. May she rest in peace.
To Sal’s family: there are no words, everyone she came in contact with loved her. All our hearts are broken for you. We will miss those dimples, that infectious laugh, her sense of humor, generosity, and kind words she always had. How lucky I have been to know her❤️❤️❤️. She loved all of you so much and was so happy to be a Mimi to Emma and Liam. God must have needed a beautiful Angel. God bless you all. We are all here for you💔💔💔💔💔
Just heartbreaking. Condolences to you Kevin and all your family
Sally had the wonderful ability to lighten any situation and bring smiles to everyone. She could always make me laugh with her dry sense of humor. Once, in a bustling hotel, a group of us patiently waited for an elevator that would take us down to the lobby. Despite several packed elevators passing us by, leaving us still waiting for an empty one, our hopes remained. Another full elevator stopped on our floor and a gentleman already inside the elevators spoke up and assured us, “I promise, I’ll send this elevator back up for you.” To which Sally responded; “Thank you! Can you believe we were just teenagers when we checked in”?
We will deeply miss our wonderful friend and remarkable person. My love to her wonderful family who she loved so deeply.
So sadden to hear of her passing!
I always enjoyed seeing her and family at T. j. wings! She was a wonderful person. My deepest sympathy to her awesome family.
My heart is broken for Kevin and Sally’s kids and grandkids, I am so so sorry. I have known Sally since before Sarah was born, we had advertising careers in St. Louis way back in the day and our friendship continued even though I no longer live in St. Louis. Sally was a ton of fun and she really cared about others. I mean really cared. For example, if I was telling a story about my kids/something going on in my life and I thought I was done with the story, Sally would encourage me to talk more about it, not just move on to the next topic. She really cared about people and she was sincere with that caring. I will never forget that quality about Sally and I will miss her very much.
I am so saddenned tonight to learn of my dear cousin and friend, Sally. Very often in adulthood I think of her and the Hamlin family and the many wonderful summer trips my family took to Hannibal. I loved her dearly.

A loved one list too young!
Kevin my heart breaks for you and yours
SALLY IS SOMEONE SPECIAL,
A SPECIAL PERSON,
A SPECIAL FACE,
Someone who is loved and can never be replaced. Special people in our lives never leave us when they are gone. They look down from heaven on us.
When you lose someone, you realize little things don’t matter, unless they are little ways they showed their LOVE.
SALLY you will be missed. KEVIN, you are also special too. We are all here for you.
Love, Maria, Webster Groves Missouri
So very sorry to hear this. Please accept my condolences
