Sally was born and raised in the small town of Greenfield, OH, surrounded by her beloved Gramma Nellie, many Aunts, Uncles and cousins who were like siblings. Her mother later married an extraordinary man, Edward Hilary. The family lived in Pittsburgh, Detroit and Upper Darby before settling in Oreland, PA.

Sally was a graduate of Springfield High School, Class of 1961. She went on to have a successful career as a Customer Service Manager at Fargo Assembly (formerly Dill Products) in Norristown, PA.

Sally was a wonderful mother, grandmother and friend who enthusiastically spread joy and positivity with her kindness, compassion, generosity and warmth. Her beautiful smile, gentle strength and genuine concern for others made everyone feel at ease and comfortable. She enjoyed great conversations with family and friends, taking pleasure in their company.  She was an energetic, playful and smart individual, always up for a friendly competition in board games, card games, trivia, and of course, Jeopardy! All of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren cherished the many sleepovers with Gram, filled with great fun and lots of junk food!

In addition to her love for games, Sally had a passion for travel and found beauty in each of her many vacation destinations all over the world. She especially enjoyed trips to the beaches of the Jersey Shore and visits to Jim Thorpe, PA. She was an avid reader, spent many years enjoying country line dancing with her "dance girls" and skillfully kept up with technology!
