10/13/2009 Sherry Strasheim (Terry, Mt) Paul and family, I just heard about Sally going home to be with her loving Savior. I am happy for her but sad for us. She is one lady that I will never, ever forget. I am so sad that we lost touch when you guys moved away. I have many memories of her that will always be in my heart. I only wish there were more people like her here on earth. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. There will be a BIG void in your lives without her but the Grace of God is with you and He will see you through...but of course, you already know this! Please tell Brooke, AJ, and Serena that I send my love and I pray for strength for them. With love and sympathy, Sherry

10/14/2009 Marlene Borchert (Sidney, Montana) What an awesome thing to reconnect with you after 21 years! It's like time stood still and we just picked up where we left off. I loved being with you and visiting and sharing our love of the Lord with you. I wish we would have had more time together under different circumstances but God said it was time for you to go home after your battle with cancer. I am comforted by the fact that you are safe in the arms of Jesus and that we will meet again someday on that heavenly shore. RIP Sweet Sally. I miss and love you, Marlene

Sally and Paul were deeply loved and respected as they served with us in McIntosh, Underwood and at Crystal Springs Baptist Camp. I have passed on the information regarding Sally's passing to all of our churches, and you can be assured of our prayers for you in this time of parting. Yet, there is the sure hope of being with Jesus for eternity, and for all who have received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, to see our loved ones again. In His grace, Rev. Phyl Putz
