In Remembrance Of
Sallie Daniel
Sallie Mae Daniel, 81, of Kansas City, MO passed away, Monday, December 10, 2018.
She was born on July 9, 1937 to Norman Lee and Emma Mae (Cavanaugh) Cardwell in Smithville, MO. Sallie grew up in Smithville and graduated from Smithville High School in 1955.
On August 10, 1956 she was united in marriage to Dale Raymond Daniel. After their marriage they lived in Kansas City North, where they made their home. Her husband preceded her in death in 1996.
Sallie worked for the North Kansas City School District as the “Bookstore Lady” at Oak Park High School and later as assistant to the nurses in the district.She was a member of KC Church where she was on the staff of the accounting department for the past 20 years. Sallie had read her Bible through eleven times this year. She was well on the way to having finished her twelfth time when she suffered a stroke which severally affected her eyesight. Sallie was an accomplished pianist and singer. She had been the pianist at Nashua Assembly of God and North Oak Assembly of God for many years.
Sallie loved to travel and was always planning her next trip. Her favorite place was Hawaii, where she had visited eleven times. She always looked forward to her yearly family vacations to California. She had also traveled to Europe and especially loved Scotland. Even though she had everything laid out on the bed to put in her suitcase, she decided to pass on our planned weekend trip to Branson and go to Heaven for eternity instead.
Like her grandfather, Frank Cavanaugh, she was a lifelong democrat. Sallie was an avid Royals and Chiefs fan, but the love of her life, was God and her family. She was devoted to her family all the days of her life.

“she decided to pass on our planned weekend trip to Branson and go to Heaven for eternity instead.” . . . I loved that sentence. When you meet my Dad, Harold Dunn, give him a hug. God has blessed you, Sallie.

My condolences to you. I worked with Sallie many years ago at A&P. I had just graduated from high school and she was always patient , kind, and helping me learn my job.
Heaven now has another angel.

I will miss Sallie greatly. I have missed so much not being able to sing with Sallie and Mae Gilbreath, as her & Mae were not able to any longer. We have had a trio for many years. Sallie was a good friend, & anytime you called her and ask her to pray about a situation you knew she would pray. I know Sallie is in heaven with her family members that have gone before her and she’s not suffering anymore.
