Sally Suzanne McJunkin, 85, passed away peacefully in her home on June 19, 2024. She was born March 11, 1939 in New Kensington, PA to the late George and Nathel Walker.
Sally was a 1957 graduate of Ken Hi, New Kensington, and attended the then Robert Morris School of Business. She lived and raised her family in New Kensington before relocating with her husband to Chicora, PA in 1983. Although a ‘city’ girl, she grew to love her new community and friends in Chicora.
Sally was first a member of the First United Methodist Church of New Kensington and then of Chicora. She was a member of the Order of the Eastern Star in Lower Burrell and then in Butler. She worked in numerous jobs over the years, but her true love was making a home and raising her family.
Sally enjoyed golf, bowling, playing cards, music, traveling, and was always up for an adventure. Her most cherished times were summer vacations in Canada and celebrating occasions large and small with her beloved and large extended family. Her love for life was plain to see and her smile could light up a room.
Most who met her always commented on how sweet she was, but she was also funny and brave and tougher than she looked. She leaves a hole in our hearts and will be deeply missed by so many.
She will be missed the most by her husband of 65 years, Roger, her daughters Mary Beth and Kelly (Dan), her granddaughter Delaney (Zach), her great granddaughter Claire, and her bonus grandchildren Jolynn and Zac. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her son-in-law Johnny.
Friends will be received at the Hile Funeral Home of Chicora, 339 Chicora-Fenelton Road, Chicora from 2-3 p.m. Thursday, June 27, 2024. A funeral service will follow from the funeral home at 3 p.m. with Rev. Jennifer Fry, a United Methodist Lay Pastor, officiating.
