Fred and Laura (Crane) Johnson, she was a native and lifelong resident of the Kensington section of Berlin, attended local schools and graduated from Arnold College, Harvard Medical School’s Physical Therapy Department and Bridgeport University. Many of Connecticut’s children were served by Sally either directly or indirectly while she was employed by the State of Connecticut.  First, as Chief Physical Therapist for the Connecticut Society of Crippled Children (1947 – 1948), then  later as a Physical Therapy/ Occupational Therapy Supervisor with the Department of Public Health (1948 – 1966).  For their participation in nationwide Salk polio vaccine trials, Sally was recognized by the American Physical Therapist Association. During World War II, Sally earned the rank of Army Captain for her service with the 32nd General Hospital division serving in the European Theater, France. She was a member of the Kensington Congregational Church, Groton Long Point Women’s Organization,  and Groton Long Point Conservation Committee.
