Sally was born in Welch, on August 17, 1940 to the late Earl Yeager and Alexandra Dolgopol Yeager. Sally spent her formative years in Bluefield with her parents, sister Nancy Sipp (Tony) and her brother, Steve Yeager (Renata). She was a member of Christ Episcopal Church in Bluefield, graduated from Stuart Hall Episcopal School in Staunton, VA. After graduating from high school, Sally attended WVU and Concord College. As an adult, Sally had the most blessed career, being a mother to five children; Tandy Goings Stone (Mark), Robin Goings (Mary), Andrea Goings DeVito (Fred), Butch Goings (Lisa), and Sally Anne Goings Lester (Keith). She dedicated her life to her family, ensuring that her children were raised in a Christian environment and were educated. Sally was a wonderful role model to her children, who are not the legacy of everything Sally was in this life. After her children were raised, Sally returned to school at WVU Institute of Technology, became a registered nurse, and worked most of her nursing career as an adolescent behavioral nurse at Beckley ARH. Sally was a member of the Church of the Heavenly Rest, Princeton and St. Stephens Episcopal Church in Beckley. The crowning glory of her life was being Nana to her grandchildren; Samantha, Sabrina, Garrett, Ashley, Kara and Megan, and special grandchildren Katrina, Kimberly, Shelia, Joey, D'Anthony, Makalia and Izaiah. All of whom she spoiled as grandmothers are allowed to do. Sally was a special aunt to Kim, Larry, Stephen, Alexandra and their families, and cherished by her Yeager and Dolgopol cousins. She was well-loved by the Goings Family, and special friends Jan Flowers, Becky Steorts and Connie William. In addition to her parents, Sally was preceded in death by her former husband, Jerry Goings, and very dear Yeager and Dolgopol Aunts and Uncles. Services to celebrate the life of Sally Yeager will be held 2:00 P.M. Saturday, August 9, 2014 at the Episcopal Church of Heavenly Rest, on Mercer Street in Princeton with Father William “Bill” Armstrong officiating. Burial will follow in Monte Vista Park Cemetery in Green Valley. Friends may visit with the family Friday from 6:00 until 8:00 PM at the Memorial Funeral Directory on the Athens Road in Princeton.
