I adored Sally's drawings. I'm so sorry I'll never meet her now . . . but I can imagine the happy dancing on the other side of the Bridge as all those Airedales she's helped with her art run to greet her . . . .

My condolences to the Babcock family on Sally's death. The years have slipped by so quickly, but I remember her her so well from Marion. Her obituarary is such a moving tribute to her life. We're all put on this earth for a purpose and it is clear to see she had her purpose and left her mark. Bless her.

My sincere sympathies to the Babcock family, Ron, Bella and Dudley. You are in my thoughts and in my prayers. Sally and I lived across Spencer Avenue from each other, went to Marion High together (she one year behind me), were in soriety together, and got into mischief together. We have corresponded over these many years and I shall miss her wonderful notes very much.

The world is a better place because of Sally. She touched so many lives and gave so unselfishly of herself and her talents. She was, and always will be, a true Airedaler.

I would never use the word "ordinary" to describe the times I spent with Sally. A true gem she was. My most sincere condolences to her family and puppy dogs.

Sally and I were great friends all through High School but we lost touch after that as many do, but it was still very sad and a shock to see her passing... my deepest condolences to her Family and friends...

Sally will live on in our hearts, as she was such a part of our Airedale world since the internet became so important to us. Her Calendars, her FOAMF cards, her lovely Airedale and Cairn crate blankets and Howliday tree skirts, and her illustrations for the Rolling 4 Rescue and the 2008 and 2009 Senior Airedales Fundraisers brought so much attention and donations to the world of Airedale Rescue . . .

I know she was greeted by Rodney, Odie and

My deepest sympathies to my neighbor Mary Jane and to Bob & LeeAnn. Sally & I went thru school together from the 3rd grade at Horace Mann until we picked up that diploma in 1967. Knowing Sally for all of these years has been very special. Rest in peace!

My first memory of Sally was on our first day of 9th grade...freshman thrown all together. She brought such laughter and fun to my world. Sally will not be forgotten.
