Sally P. Howard, 70, of New Eagle, died Monday, November 20, 2017, in Washington Hospital.

She was born July 8, 1947, in McKeesport, a daughter of Victor and Wilma Pearl Albaugh Villers.

Mrs. Howard was a 1967 graduate of the Greater Monongahela Area High School and was a member of Greene Believers Fellowship Church in Mt. Morris.

She was a very talented and crafty person. Her talents as a seamstress were evident as she made wedding and bridal party dresses. She was a quilter, enjoyed cross stitch, plaster crafts and painted scenes on items such as lanterns, chairs or anything that she was able to. She often arranged flowers at church and for banquets and gatherings. When she was not sharing her artistic abilities, she loved to relax and read a good book.

She is survived by her husband, Donald E. Howard, with whom she celebrated 49 years of marriage August 31, 2017; two sons, Dan and wife Janet Howard of New Eagle and David and wife Ruth Howard of Murrysville; three grandchildren, Allan and Jon Howard and Ashley Boggess; nine great grandchildren, Caiden, Eliana, Kylie, Nolan, Aryia, Nevaeh, Faith, Charlie and Johnnie; two brothers, Larry “Paul” Villers and wife Sandy of Sussex, Wis., and Herbert Villers and wife Linda of Perryopolis; special niece Melissa Young of Finleyville; and many other nieces and nephews.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by a sister, Verna Haywood, and a great-granddaughter, Aubrey.

Family and friends are invited to attend a celebration of life at 10 a.m. Sunday, December 3, in Greene Believers Fellowship Church, School Road, Mt. Morris, PA 15349, with the Rev. Steven J. McIntire officiating.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions in Mrs. Howard’s memory to be made to Frye Funeral Home Inc., 427 West Main Street, Monongahela, PA 15053, or directly to the family to assist with the funeral expenses.
