O’Hare; four children, Mary White and her husband, Charlie; Paul O’Hare and his wife, Marie; John O’Hare and his wife, Maureen and Michael O’Hare and his wife, Sandra; her niece, Joan McLaughlin and her husband, Kevin.

She was the great-grandmother of Vivian and Charlie White.
In 1963, Sally gave birth to a still born child who she and Paul named Frances Margaret “Maggy” O’Hare.
