Sarah R. Sturges

Sarah Ruth “Sally” Sturges, 83, of Sioux City, IA passed away on August 10, 2020.

Sally was born on August 10, 1937 in Slayton, MN to Harrison and Laura (Hollmer) Sturges.

Sally joined a convent shortly after high school before realizing her dream of being a counselor/educator. After receiving her degree from SDSU, Sally worked as a counselor for St. Lukes. Sally then went on to open her own recovery/counseling center in Sioux City. After retiring, Sally decided she loved and missed visiting with people so she took on a part-time job at Walmart. Sally worked at Walmart from June 2010 to August 2018.

Sally is survived by one sister, Virginia Asbury of Wichita Falls, TX, as well as many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by three sisters, Mildred Pistulka, Suzie Sturges, and Mary Hackert and two brothers Thomas Sturges and William “Bill” Sturges.

Due to Covid-19, no services are being planned. Burial of cremains will take place at a later date. Meyer Brothers Colonial Chapel has assisted the family with arrangements.
