“I rise today to honor the life of Sally Lugar, who passed away peacefully amid the love of family and friends on May 2, 2024. Sally was a proud, lifelong Hoosier. She was born in Martinsville, IN, on June 12, 1934. After graduating high school, she attended Purdue University and earned a degree in home economics. While at Purdue, she was a varsity cheerleader, president of her dorm, and spent 3 years on the Debris, the Purdue yearbook. After graduating, she taught english, health and science, and physical education at Muncie Central High School. Sally married Thomas R. Lugar on April 12, 1958, and they were blessed with three children, five grandchildren, and one great- grandchild. When Tom passed in 2018, they had been married for 60 years. Sally and Tom were avid travelers who loved experiencing new cultures and creating new lifelong friendships. She loved connecting with people and serving her fellow Hoosiers. In the last 60 years, Sally served more than 30 central Indiana nonprofit organizations. She did this while managing a family farm in Morgan County and raising three children. Her service included active engagement with the tennis community and extensive involvement with the greater Indianapolis community.…”
