Sorry for your loss praying for you and your family

Sending condolences and prayer to prayer to Regina, Sharon and my nephew Jarmaine. Jarmaine was your first grandchild and you was a wonderful and blessing to him and my sister during his early years of life. Sallie was a precious and caring mother and grandmother.

Sending my heartfelt condolences to the Gaskins family. Mrs. Sallie was always nice and kind to me and my daddy, Wesley Davis Sr., whenever she saw us. She said that she loved him being a friend to her sister, Mrs. Sarah Clark. If Mrs. Sarah was out of town, she was one of the ones that made sure Daddy had his dinner. She will be missed. Family, be blessed! Ruth Jones Ligon.

I absolutely adored Ms. Sallie, whom I met through her daughter Sharon. We were classmates and best friends. I got to know the entire family - Regina, aunts, uncles, and cousins. Ms. Sallie consistently encouraged me and always had something nice to say whenever she saw me, even into my adult years. Sharon and Regina, I pray that with each new tomorrow, you will experience more smiles and less sorrow as you remember your dear mother. PCHS 1983 Classmate, Gregory Cutler

Regina, Sharon your mom gave me my first adult like job when I would babysit you guys. She would call me during shrimp time to get her some shrimp for you guys. She will be missed by many. Love you all. Lillian Burley-Guion

Sharon, I am sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. I will always remember her from our days at UNC. May God comfort you and your family during this most difficult time. Kim Lassiter Fisher

My prayers are with you Sharon, the family and friends

I met Mrs. Sallie through my sister friend Regina about 14 years ago. Regina and I were neighbors, who very quickly clicked and became family, and through that friendship, I inherited a new niece Stephanie, a nephew Daniel, cousin Cleveland, sister Sharon and mother Mrs. Sallie, and a host of other beautiful family members. We've stayed with Mrs. Sallie, went to family reunions and enjoyed her wonderful home cooking. My son Donovan, enjoyed her delicious corn bread, which he ate many pieces and she enjoyed watching him eat. She even fussed at me for telling him he had eaten enough. Mrs. Sallie reminded me of my mom because they share the same name and in ways mannerism. She will be missed but the love and kindness she showed me and my two son's will never be forgotten. Rest in the loving arms of Christ our Savior & Father! Love to the family, Sonja, Denzal & Donovan (aka Boom Boom)!

Rest peacefully Aunt Sallie... Lord knows I will miss you. ❤️

"What was once enjoyed and deeply loved, we can never lose. For all that we love deeply becomes part of us." Helen Keller

Our family loved this woman with all our hearts. She worked for us & worked beside me for many years in Vandemere serving public, she was with us after each one of our children were born and anytime I ever needed her she was always by our side. She watched my children grow into adults just like they were her own. We will miss her, but always remember the love she felt for us. Our thoughts & prayers are with you Sharon & Regina and her extended family. May God bless each of you.

I am so sorry for your loss. May God give you comfort.

Regina and Sharon praying for you both during this most difficult and unexpectedly time.
