Sally married Ken Delonay, August 28, 1949 in Wausau where they lived until moving to Colorado Springs in 1975. She was a bookkeeper at Walgreens and retired after 25 years. Sally enjoyed going motorcycle riding with Ken, “sitting in the sun�, playing Bridge and spending time with her grandkids and great grand kids. She was also an animal lover, and all animals she encountered loved her. She would be known to risk her own safety to rescue a dog in traffic. Sally's family are all left with many great loving memories of her. Her family in Colorado Springs will always remember “gg� bringing donuts on Saturday morning and sharing pink frosted donuts with her. Her family in Washington will always remember her visits with the smell of chocolate chip cookies baking and the best bologna sandwiches in the world!
