Sally Rae (Corless) Cummings of Tillamook was born on November 13, 1933 in Oregon City to Herbert Ray and Mary Winifred (Duffy) Corless.

Sally passed away after a sudden illness in Roseburg on April 26, 2012 at the age of 78. Sally grew up in Beavercreek, Oregon and graduated from Oregon City High School, class of 1951. After high school Sally attended Oregon State University for two years, where she met the love of her life, and whom she would spend the next 58 plus years with, Ed Cummings. They were united in marriage in June of 1953 in Beavercreek. Over the next couple years, Sally would accompany Ed wherever his military duties took him. Together they lived many places following Ed's work; including, Salem, Sandy, Coos Bay, Clackamas, and Tacoma, Wash., Milwaukie and Tillamook. She worked for a temporary service that included a variety of different office jobs, while raising a family which included three sons. She also worked for several years at Fred Meyer's warehouse in Clackamas.

Sally was a charter member of the Tillamook County Quilters, a past board member of the Tillamook County YMCA, a member of the Tillamook United Methodist Church, their Faith Quilters and the Gila Mountain United Methodist Church in Yuma, Ariz.

Immediate and extended family was Sally's life, and she was happiest when everybody was together. Her fondest memories were family vacations to Sunriver, Yuma, Ariz.; Mazatlan, Mexico and the annual Corless/Duffy/Droz family camping weekend in September.

She leaves behind to honor her life, her loving family, husband Ed Cummings of Tillamook; children Mitch Cummings and wife Jillian of Tillamook; Jon Cummings and wife Beth of Tillamook; Jerry Cummings and wife Katie of Milwaukie; brother Mike Corless and wife Sandy; sisters Gloria Eckley and husband Ben, Barbara Droz and husband George and Linda Bohls and husband Jim; grandchildren Luke Cummings and wife Erin, Scott Cummings and wife Sara, Sam Cummings, Ryan Cummings, Emma Cummings, and Felicia Cummings and by great-grandchildren Jackson, Grace, Austin, Riley and Corless.

A celebration of Sally's life will take place at 11 a.m. May 12 at the Tillamook United Methodist Church, with Sally's close friend, Pastor Carol Brown officiating. Memorial contributions in Sally's name may be made to the Tillamook United Methodist Church or the Kiwanis Camp. Arrangements are in care of Waud's Funeral Home in Tillamook.
