As a frequent attendee of the OBHS, knowing I was going to see Sally every year was one of my highlights. Her infectious smile and warm hug always started the event off well for me. I've missed her! But she lives on as she has not left us without disseminating her humanitarian qualities to her children. Pam, you know how I love you and I am sending my special thoughts to you and all the family as you continue to honour your mom. She was a great lady with a big heart and I am happy to have had the privilege to know her.
