    Sally was beautiful, smart and a keen observer of everyone and everything around her. She and Pete have done so much for their community, neighbors and friends since coming back home to Dayton. May the joy and strength Sally had in life help sustain all of you through your grief. Much love to you Pete and all of the kids.
