Hon. Sally Hne Howe

Dear Lord, if indeed I am Thine, if Thou art my sun and my song, Say, why do I languish and pine, and why are my winters so long? Oh, drive these dark clouds from my sky; Thy soul cheering presence Restore; or take me unto Thee on high, where winters and clouds are no more.

The Howe and all related Families announce with profound sadness, the death in her 87th Year of Hon. Sally Hne Howe, former member of the House of Representatives for Maryland County (1971-1980). This sad event occurred peacefully at her Outland Community home, Paynesville City, Liberia. She was born on April 6, 1929 in Springhill, Harper City, Maryland County to the blessed union of Hon. John Gyude Howe and Mrs. Lue Klanneh Scott Howe.

The late Hon. Sally Hne Howe was a devout Christian, and an Episcopalian from Annunciation Church in Springhill, Maryland County. She later transferred her membership to the St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Sinkor, Monrovia, where she served as Usher up to the time of her death. She was also a faithful and dedicated member of the Episcopal Church Women of Liberia.

Ma Dear, Aunty Sally, Weesue, Civilized Girl, and in the many ways we all called her was the unifying tree of the Howe Family and Descendants. Her frankness, love, and jokes will be missed by all. She lived well in her community as an Elder, a pillar of wisdom, and a mother to all.
