Salguod Mary Maud Donahue

July 15, 1937 - May 6, 2020

Salguod Mary Maud Donahue, 82, of Murray, Utah passed away May 6, 2020, with her family by her side. Salguod Mary Maud (Sally) was born July 15, 1937, in Edinburgh, Scotland to the late Melville George Govan and Jean Grossart-Wilson. Sally immigrated with her parents to South Australia at the age of 17. She married Tom Haworth on November 8, 1958. Sally took the big leap and immigrated with her husband and children to the United States in 1973, leaving her immediate family in Australia. Following her divorce, Sally married Patrick Eugene Donahue on April 15, 1978, later divorced. Sally was a beloved mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She made sure all of her family and friends knew how much they were loved. She was an expert presser at a dry cleaners in Australia then in the United States. Sally worked for many years at Village Cleaners where she was loved by many. She retired at the age of 75 only because her eyesight became limited when she developed dry Macular Degeneration. Sally loved to dance and could hands down win any Jitterbug contest. She later joined a line dancing coalition in Utah, where she spent many hours at the Westerner learning new country line dances. She made many lifelong friends, including Randy Christensen, her dear companion and “partner in crime.” She competed nationally and won many awards in her age group. She taught dancing at elementary schools and senior centers. Dancing truly was her happiness. She spent many weekends at Starvation Reservoir participating in Chili cook offs and enjoying time spent with her longtime friends Linda and Ray. She felt truly blessed to have amazing people in her life. Sally loved bowling and was involved in many leagues over the years. We certainly can’t forget that she loved Wendover to get her gambling fix. She would take $20 dollars and could sit at a machine for hours. Her final trip to Wendover was on her 80th birthday; she couldn’t see to play the slots but she did anyway and had a great time. Sally is survived by her daughter, Sandra Campbell (Doug); her son, Wayne Haworth (Lori); 8 grandchildren, and 22 great grandchildren. A Celebration of Life will be held on her birthday July 15, 2020. Details will be announced at a later date. Online condolences at www.premierfuneral.com.
