Sally had a passion for education, and ' attended the University of Southern California, graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Geology.
On August 7, 1948, Sally married Eldon Paul Almquist. They had two children while living in Arcadia, California, Melinda, and Gilbert.

Sally's life was always filled with family, friends, nature, and her faith in God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost. She gave her warmth, infectious smile, and service to the community. Her passion for music will be carried on through her family, friends, and students to whom she extended her teachings and love of the piano. She accompanied the choir at Pine View High, and her beautiful music performed in the St. George Tabernacle, weddings, and church services will always be remembered. We thank her for those memories.
