Have you ever wondered why it matters that our funeral home family has its own crematory? It’s simple: your loved one stays in the care of people right here in our community — not sent out of state, and not placed with strangers you’ve never met.

Because our sister location operates the crematory, we’re able to:
✅ Handle every step within our own funeral home family
✅ Make sure your loved one is treated with dignity and respect the entire time
✅ Give you peace of mind knowing exactly who is caring for them
✅ Offer more personal options and clearer communication

Many funeral homes have to send your loved one somewhere else for cremation. With us, they stay in the family — our funeral home family. That’s the level of care we’d want for our own loved ones, and it’s the level of care we’re proud to offer yours.

Surrounded by family, Sally Elizabeth Wright, Springdale, passed away peacefully on November 12, 2025, after a courageous battle with ALS.

Survivors include son Scott Wright (Tina Wright), Michelle Wright (Roo Wi******er), her beloved grandchildren Matthew & Mikayla Wright, sister Norma Wilson, and her niece Tracey Wilson, along with several nieces, and many friends.

She is preceded in death by husband, Thomas E “Tommy” Wright, parents Champ and Duffa Crawford, and brother C.H. Crawford.

Sally was born on April 2, 1949 to Champ and Duffa Crawford in Ft. Smith, AR. She graduated from Southside High School in Ft. Smith in 1968. She then went on to Westark Community College in Ft. Smith where she completed an associates degree. On January 8, 1971 she was united in marriage to Thomas E. Wright and they established their home in Ft. Smith, AR. Sally worked at First National Bank in Ft. Smith from the time she graduated until she retired in the year 2000. After she retired she moved permanently to Mt. Ida where her husband, sister, and her built their own home on their land close to Lake Ouachita. Sally was also very loyal to her Arkansas Razorback teams. She rarely missed a game in any of the sports. You could always hear her calling those HOGS!

Sally was one of a kind from the very beginning. Loyal, hilarious, and endlessly devoted, she loved with a force that was unmistakable, and if she loved you, you absolutely knew it. She was a woman of fierce devotion, deep faith, sharp wit, and unwavering love. To know Sally was to feel welcomed, seen, and fiercely loved. She had a presence that filled every room; strong, steady, and unforgettable. She remembered every birthday, every favorite thing, every inside joke. She didn’t just love people, she proved it.

The family asks that donations be made in Sally’s name to the ALS Foundation, (www.als.org) and/or that you simply show up in someone’s life the way she always showed up for others.

A graveside service will be determined at a later date.

Fred Douglas Beck was born in Denver, Colorado on February 14, 1948 to Fred "Tim" Beck and Orlene Catherine (Dobbs) Beck. As a young boy he ran a paper route in the Denver suburbs and used the money he earned to ride the train to local ski slopes any chance he could get. He made his life long home in the McKey, Oklahoma community after his parents moved back to where Cat's family roots were planted. He graduated from Vian High School in 1966 and attended Connor State College. His aptitude to fix anything was evident in his early adult life as he worked as a machinist for Hilti Tool Co. in Tulsa for a time then for Holley Carburetor here in Sallisaw. He also farmed the families land, raising cattle, row crops, and commercial hay baling. Fred had a strong sense of community. He would drop anything he was doing to help a neighbor no matter the hour or circumstance. He was one of the founding members of McKey Volunteer Fire Department often taking money out of his own pocket, as many others did, to put fuel in the fire trucks or repair them. He and his family were active in 4H and Farm Bureau and were Farm Bureau family of the year in the late 80's. He served on the Sequoyah County Fair Board for 14 years. He also served as president of the Sequoyah County Cattleman's Association and was on the Board of Directors for Rural Water District 5 for many years as well. Fred's real love was his family. His grandchildren always brought a beam to his face and he would be quick to tell anyone of their accomplishments.

Fred entered in eternity on November 13, 2025, at his home surrounded by his family. He is survived by his four children, Jeff Beck and wife, Paulette, of Sarcoxie, MO, Julie Haywood and husband, Justin, of Sallisaw, OK, Kristina Downing and husband, J.D., of Broken Arrow, OK, and Kelsey Sells and husband, Teddy, of Sallisaw, OK; four grandchildren, Avery Haywood, Mallorie Beck, Gracey Skaggs, and Mia Sells; his aunt, Ora Lee Kirk; and numerous cousins and countless friends and neighbors.
