I have never met a nicer and classier lady than Sally. She was always so pleasant and easy to talk with. She added a touch of class and calm to every bank meeting she attended. She was special and so respected. One of a kind!

Sally was a great lady. Always had a smile. When I started working in banking years ago, she taught me a lot. I will never forget her pleasant personality and friendly and helpful smile. Prayers with her whole family.
