I started playing ball with Sally in 2005. A bunch of ladies that Sally got together would play every Tuesday and Friday...all year long, year after year. I met some great friends, and have had some fun experiences because of this volleyball group.
Sally and I have played together on many teams.
We did well in the Utah Summer games.
We earned a spot in the State games in Colorado Springs, CO
Deseret News did an article on Sally and her family. You can read it HERE. ( Read it and see how cool she is!)
I was able to spend a couple hours with Sally and her husband Chris about 12 hours before she died. We knew her passing was close. As Chris and I visited, Sally's breaths were strained. She would quit breathing breathing, and Chris and I would pause sharing our stories of Sally, and then she would start breathing again. Sally died in the early morning hours of Aug 7, 2015.
I am a better person because of Sally Mart.

These are some of the ladies, and Sione, that have played ball in the Tues/Fri group. This was taken today at Sally's funeral.
