Sally Hannah Hubbs Comerford was born on April 10, 1950, in Palmyra, New Jersey, to the late Florence Marie Drummond Hubbs and Robert Clayton Hubbs. She attended the public schools in Palmyra and went on to receive a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Emporia College in Emporia, Kansas, and a Master of Public Administration Degree from Rider University in Lawrence Township, New Jersey.
Sally built a successful career as a bank manager, but spent most of her professional life working for not-for-profit charities, including the American Heart and Lung Associations, and in education, serving as adjunct faculty at Trenton State (now the College of New Jersey), working on a project to advance the employment of Women in Trades and Technology. She concluded her career as the Administrator of the Mountain Lakes Holding Corporation in Princeton, New Jersey.
Beyond her professional life, Sally was deeply involved in the early days of the Princeton Friends School that her daughter Emily attended, and was an active member of the Princeton Friends Community. She traveled the world before marriage, loved the beach in Spring Lake, New Jersey, and especially enjoyed the Nova Scotia vacation home she purchased with her husband, Anthony, after the birth of their daughter, Emily.
Sally Hannah Hubbs and Anthony Comerford were married in New Jersey on September 9, 1990. Together, they built a life filled with Love that included caring for their daughter Emily, as well as for two children from Anthony’s prior marriage.
Sally will be remembered for her generous spirit, abundant compassion, and willingness to lend a hand to a cause. She will be missed by all who knew her.
Sally Comerford is survived by her beloved spouse, Anthony; Anthony’s children, Peter and Caroline; Caroline’s husband, Colin, and their two sons, Whitman and Charles; Sally and Anthony’s daughter, Emily McDonough Pulham, her husband, Matthew, and their daughter Gemma. She was preceded in death by her mother and father, Florence and Clayton Hubbs, and her brother, Stuart Hubbs.
An occasion to celebrate Sally’s life will be arranged with The Princeton Friends Meeting, 470 Quaker Rd, Princeton, NJ 08540.
