She was a very staunch Pacer fan. While working at McCroy's Five and Dime, she met Marion N. Turner and they married in November of 1936. Marion and 'Sally' had three children, Beverly Ann, Bonnie Jean and Byron Lee.In 1956, Sally went to work at Western Electric and worked there until 1978 when she and Marion took their retirements and moved to Phoenix, Arizona, where they resided until Marion's death in 1984.Sally moved back to Indianapolis in April of 1984 where she resided until her death in 2001.Sally and Marion had 12 grandchildren, one of which, Barbara Fowley, is laid to rest along side of Marion at Calvary Cemetery.
