Sally Walker Armstrong went to be with her Lord on December 17, 2017. Born to Luther and Sallie Walker on June 11, 1928, Sally grew up in Arkadelphia, Arkansas and graduated from Henderson State Teachers College with a BA in Education. Since 1953, she has lived in San Antonio.

Sally actively and lovingly raised two sons, Larry and Danny. She was their first teacher and coach which took her to many baseball, basketball, track and football venues to watch and cheer them on. She was always involved with her neighbors and their children making lifelong friends for the family along the way. Sally stayed in the center of her boys' lives, attending events and celebrations and adding her spark to make each of these even more special.

Sally was Grandmother, or Gmo, and was cherished by those who called her that. She played with them, attended school programs and concerts, sat through many games of all kinds and lovingly praised Jimmy, Lindsey, and Kelley each time. Sally proudly attended their baptisms, confirmations, graduations, and a wedding, when Edward was added to the grandchild list, and was always the heart of the family event. Her role increased as the title of Great Gmo, or GGmo, was added and a new blessing, Dylan, was hers to love.

Sally was a friend to everyone she met. A member of Coker UMC since 1961, she was active in many different groups there along with the Yellow Roses, The San Antonio Walkers Group, and the Countryside Garden Club. From backyards, her sons' schools, her church, and even Razorback games came many lifelong acquaintances that called her friend. Sally also loved traveling and going with a group just made the memories last longer. To say that she loved games would be an understatement-she was devoted to her Mahjong and Bridge days and all of those who played with her. She will be missed by so many.

Sally was preceded in death by her parents, her brothers Frank Walker, Robert Walker, and his wife, Amy.

She is survived by her son Larry Armstrong and wife, Cyndi, Danny Armstrong and wife, Lori; Grandchildren Jimmy Armstrong, Lindsey Armstrong, Kelley and Edward Garza; Great Grandchild, Dylan Garza; and very special nieces and nephews.

A Memorial Service for Sally was held at Coker UMC on December 28, 2017. The family invites donations in Sally's memory to the Coker Columbarium Building Project.

An event was named for Sally at the San Antonio 4th of July Regional in 2019
