  BUCHANAN
  
    Sally Ann Buchanan, 54, of Ligonier, died Oct. 6, 1998, in the
  Latrobe Area Hospital.  She was born March 21, 1944, in East Chicago,
  Ind., a daughter of Evelyn Bromley Ringham of Fort Lauderhill, Fla.,
  and the late Richard Ringham.  Sally received her B.A. in Education
  from Fairleigh-Dickinson University.  She was employed by the Needle
  Nook in Ligonier.  Sally was multi-talented with many different forms
  of arts and crafts.  Her gentle spirit and love for children made her
  the "perfect" baby-sitter for many area families.  Sally was a woman
  whose beauty and love, both inside and out, was contagious and
  refreshing to all who knew or met her.  She is survived by her
  husband of 31 years, Dwight L. Buchanan; three daughters:  Mrs.
  Joseph (Carolyn) Labik of Somerset, Mrs. Michael (Cindy) Collins of
  Bridgeville and Christie Buchanan of Philadelphia and a
  granddaughter, Megan Collins.  Also two sisters, Mrs. Daniel (Nancy)
  Streiff of Winnetka, Ill., and Mrs. William (Janet) Tyson of Acworth,
  Ga., and a brother, William Ringham of Fox Chapel and numerous nieces
  and nephews.  Friends will gather at the J. Paul McCracken Funeral
  Home Inc., 144 E. Main Street, Ligonier from 6 p.m. Sunday until a
  Celebration of Sally's' Life at 7:30 p.m., with the Rev. James B.
  Simons officiating.  The family requests that memorial contributions
  be made in her memory to the American Cancer Society.
