Oh what you said about egging one on in PMs was so true. lol You knew when she would Pm you that you had stated a truth and that she was standing right there with you with common sense.

Hugs Sally, we shall think of you all the time when we speak up in postings.

So sorry to hear this today. Sally was one of a kind.

The chicken playground here just won't be the same.

I never knew her personally, but, like everyone in the BYC crowd, got to know her through her posts. Never knew this was waiting to happen....

Rest in Peace Ranchie. My sincere condolences to her friends and family.

What a horrible piece of news to hear...I will miss Sally dearly. Thank you, Opa, for letting us all know. I hope someone will let her family know about this thread so they can share in our sorrow & delight in our stories about how much Sally was loved by us all!

So sorry to hear this, I didn't know her personally but loved to read her post. Here is a Irish Blessing that seems to fit so well. Rest-in-Peace, Ranchie. Enjoy that big chicken coop in the sky.

Remembered Joy

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free!
I follow the plan God laid for me.
I saw His face, I heard His call,
I took His hand and left it all...
I could not stay another day,
To love, to laugh, to work or play;
Tasks left undone must stay that way.
And if my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss...
Ah yes, these things I, too, shall miss.
My life's been full, I've savoured much:
Good times, good friends, a loved-one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief—
Don't shorten yours with undue grief.
Be not burdened with tears of sorrow,
Enjoy the sunshine of the morrow.

X2- I hope they know she touched many, many lives by her involvement in this community, and that she lives on in the memories of THOUSANDS of BYCers.

Prayers for you, Sally, and prayers for all those who miss you.
