Sara "Sally"Jane Edwards, née Gundel, born 1946, passed away peacefully in her sleep at the age of 74 after a long struggle with osteoporosis and dementia. She is survived by family members: Joanne DeLancey (sister), John (husband), Brian (son), Lindsay (dil), and Grey & Geneva (grandchildren).

Sally grew up in Columbia, PA and was the first member of her family to go to college where she majored in English. In addition to being a devout mother, she worked in both social services and as a travel agent. She was a principled Christian and expressed her devotion through altruism, dedicating many hours a week as a crisis hotline worker. A consummate learner, she would immerse herself in diverse topics such as Judaism, making Kahlúa, knitting, and genealogy. She enjoyed long talks into the night over tea and toast.
