Amalia “Sally” Mullens passed away Wednesday, March 20, 2019, at Casa de la Luz Hospice surrounded by her loving family.
Sally was born on Sept. 16, 1956 in Willcox, AZ to Frank C. and Sarah Torres. She married Michael A. Mullens on June 21, 1980. They had one son, Michael J. Mullens.
Being a mother was her most cherished role in life. She later discovered that the only thing better in life than being a mom was becoming a nana when Brianna and Brian were born. She loved having the house full of kids and hearing their commotion and laughter.
To say Sally had an incredible talent when it came to bead work and crocheting would be an understatement.
Sally is survived by her husband of 38 years, Mike; her son, Michael; grandchildren, Brianna and Brian; her stepfather, Howard Adams; siblings, Bertha Mueller (John), Eva Collins (Paul) and Frank Torres (Wendy); six nephews, two nieces and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.
Throughout her life, she never lost her great sense of humor. Her family is sad that she left this earth when she was only 62, but is comforted in knowing that she is without pain with her Savior.
Services will be held Saturday, March 30, at St. Bartholomew’s Catholic Church in San Manuel. Rosary will be held at 9:30 a.m. with Mass following.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in Sally’s name to Casa de la Luz Foundation, 7740 N. Oracle Rd., Tucson, AZ 85704.
