She loved a good Kentucky Derby party and was very knowledgeable about the horses participating. She wed John (Jack) W. Hilliard in May of 1950 and theirs was a never ending love story. Her family finds consolation in her passing with the belief that they are now reunited. Sally enjoyed summers with family at Pine Island, in the Lake of the Isles at the St. Lawrence River. Her love of fishing, boating and the river was only surpassed by her love of family. Sally was known as Grandma Sal to many. She attended sporting events and proudly cheered on her Cal-Mum Alma mater no matter what the sport, weather or season. Family and friends knew never to call her when there was a Syracuse University basketball game on as that was her team. Friends may call at the Alhart Funeral Home, 3068 W.
