Sally and Dennis were married April 19, 1958 and would have celebrated their 65th anniversary in April of 2023. Sally and Dennis shared four children together.

In 1963 they moved back to South Dakota. She enjoyed cooking which led to working at the “Cavalier”, the “Kerry House”, “A&W” and lastly “The University of South Dakota” where she retired after 18 years.

 

Sally loved to bowl and had many stories to tell of the bowling trips she went on. She loved to travel with whomever she could get to ride along. Sally spent many hours at her children and grandchildren’s sporting events. She also enjoyed going antique shopping or shopping of any kind. Many spring and fall seasons you would find her taking meals to “the guys in the field” She was a devoted green bay packers fan.

 

Her most cherished role was being a loving wife to Dennis and beloved mother to her four children.
