To all of you I am so sorry for the loss of Sally. She was a loving caring wife, mother and friend. My prayers go out to all of you as you start the grieving process. May God give you the strength to look back on all the wonderful memories and years that you had to spend together and until you meet again. God Bless all of you and know that I am thinking of you. Know that Tim loved your mom and that many years ago when I was not around she made a wonderful substitute.
Over the years I help the Keenans at the funeral home for an extra pair of hands. Sally and Dick worked together as a team, and loved what they did. Sally, was loving and a caring person and will be missed. Sally may you ride on the eagles wings to heaven and we will see you again one day.
My prayers go out to the Keenan family during this time of sorrow….
I am so sorry for your loss, through the years you always say, I am going to see the family next time, and next time does not come.
I will just need to wait till heaven calls me home to have a reunion with all my New York family.
Your serviced God well, beautiful lady.
