    We are so sorry for your loss!!!! Sally was indeed big part of Cape Vincent for such a long time and if you asked ANYONE that has lived in Cape Vincent if they knew her, the answer was “OF COURSE” I know Sally!!! How could you not, Sally was EVERYWHERE, and involved in so many things.. Sending prayers to Dick and family!!!
