   Mrs. Sally Finley, age 88, of Marion went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, October 20, 2020 at Autumn Care of Marion.

A devout Christian and an avid reader, Sally was a lifelong member of Clinchfield United Methodist Church and long time Sunday School teacher. She loved teaching as well as working for years in the church programs that provided weekly meals in the church fellowship hall and groceries for those in need. Sally worked at Old Fort Finishing plant for 32 years until it’s closing and went back to school to earn her Associate Degree in Business Administration. She and Robert loved spending time as much as possible at Holden Beach.

She is survived by sons, Terrell Finley and wife Avis of Marion, Douglas Finley and wife Judy of Morganton and siblings Peggy Nix and Douglas Wilson. She is also survived by grandchildren, Sarah Grubbs (John), Zane Finley, Cole Finley (Jenna) and Danni Wise, and great grandchildren, Isaac, Kiley, Caleb and Campbell Grubbs and Andrew Peppers.

The family would like to thank Autumn Care of Marion for tender care they provided, treating her as family, especially during this stressful pandemic when family could not visit.
