Aunt Sallie was an extremely fun, active, talented and loving lady. She had a marvelous sense of humor and a twinkle in her eye. We didn’t get to spend nearly enough time together, but she was Mom’s best friend as well as sister.
Enjoy Heaven and we’ll see you one day.
Love, Valerie (Nelson) Orr and Freddie Orr
So sorry for your loss but she’s in a much better place. Wish I could attend like for Tom but my airline service changed and now goes to Chicago and I can’t drive very far with my back. Love to all, Steve
Thank God for a good mother. May her soul rest in peace. May our Mother in Heaven, wrap her arms around the family and bring them comfort. God bless you all.
My sincere condolences to the family, Sally was a bright light. Our hearts will hold you in our prayers
My 🙏 condolences. Prayers for peace for the family in this time of grief.
Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her.
Aunt Sallie was fun. As kids, we all looked forward to seeing her. Whether she was playing cards with the folks or just visiting she was fun. She had a great sense of humor but she was a Thompson and if she had an opinion, she was glad to share it. Mom truly loved her and as Val said, she was more than her sister, she was her best friend. That’s the kind of person Sallie was. She was special, loving, and caring. She raised some great kids and she will be missed. Our condolences to the family for their loss but know she is in a much better place with everlasting joy and contentment. We love you. RIP Sallie
So sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I have a lot of good memories of Sallie from our younger years.
Sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful lady. We will miss her dearly.
