Two weeks after she met Kenneth Lind, and one week after she turned 18, they were married. After living in Everett for a spell till she graduated, they bought property in Arlington where they lived for the rest of their lives and raised a family.

Sally was mostly a stay-at-home mother who also worked as a bookkeeper for the family cedar shake mill, and as a Tupperware Lady. She was house proud. And loved to garden. She canned what came out of her garden; peaches, pears, pickles, relish.

The family achieved a large degree of self-sufficiency. Kenny started his own mill in the backyard. They raised rabbits and pigs. Sally was a hard worker, was frugal and resourceful. Being with family on Thanksgiving and Christmas was her greatest joy.

Sally Lind leaves behind her three children: Kristi, Jeff (with Cindy) and Rick (with Jody).

She is also survived by her 5 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren.

We will treasure the memory of this woman Sally deeply in our hearts, forever.
