Sarah Elizabeth Leland passed into the arms of her savior early on the morning of December 12, 2017. She died peacefully in her sleep with her husband by her side and is rejoicing in heaven with her momma and daddy.

Sally was born on July 28, 1943, at the home place in San Angelo, Texas, to Corrine and Creed Hasty. She grew up in a happy home full of love and laughter with nine brothers and sisters. In 1963 she married Horace Wells Leland III. She was a strong, loyal military wife who made every post a home and sometimes carried the load alone while Lee was overseas. Sally was a woman of many talents; she worked with her sister at Ashley’s Boot Shop for close to twenty years, repairing boots, shoes, handbags, and anything else that required ingenuity and skill. One summer she held a pair of shoulder pads she had repaired hostage until the Houston Oilers brought her a football signed by the whole team. 

For the past 15 years, Sally enjoyed working with her girlfriends at Mar-tiques. Up until just a few weeks ago, she still went in to “work” twice a week. Marty and the girls brought her great joy and lots of laughter.

Sally was devoted to her grandchildren (who could do no wrong) and was fond of saying, “What happens in Knickerbocker stays in Knickerbocker.” Machelle, Ellie, Gracie, Corina, and Lee will miss her dearly.

One of the most valuable lessons Sally taught her children was that a pattern (or recipe, or instructions) is not required when something needs to be done. She always found a way to make that costume, build that manger, move that mountain, or bake that pie. 

For many years Sally enjoyed hunting, fishing, and rock hunting and was known to play the slots occasionally. She crocheted beautifully and leaves behind many treasures for her family. 

Sally is survived by her husband, Lee, of Knickerbocker; son, Chris, of Terlingua; daughter Leia and her husband Brandon Barker, of San Angelo; five grandchildren, and three great grandchildren. She is also survived by siblings Richard Hasty and wife Mary Sue, Johnny Hasty, Carol Swaringen, EB Ryan and husband David, Norma Green-Martin and husband Jerald, and sister-in-law, Freddy Hasty. Many dear nieces, nephews, and cousins will miss her as well.

Sally was preceded in death by her parents, Corrine and Creed Hasty, and sibling/inlaws Kenneth Hasty, Ann and Vernon Rannefeld, Margaret and Alfred Ashley, Otis Green, Beverly Hasty, and Bill Swaringen.

A memorial for family and close friends will be held at a later date.

Because she loved helping people so much, Sally organized several benefit rummage sales for families in need. Making a donation to your favorite charity would be a wonderful way to honor her.
