Sally and I were classmates at york high. I am so sad to hear of her death. Had not seen her in all these years but always thought of her and all of our classmates through the years. My deepest sympathy to her family. Anne (Welch) Newsome.

I think of Mrs. Ripley so often with great fondness and warm memories of the childhood my sister and I experienced as her next-door neighbors. We would scamper through our backyard into hers, and on into her home, which she always opened to us. She was so loving, kind, gentle and patient - a wonderful role model to me as I mother my own young children. My condolences to all of her loved ones.

Dear Jud,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. Although it has been many years since I last saw her, I have very fond childhood memories of spending time at your house. She was a warm and caring person and will be missed. Will keep you in my thoughts.
Sincerely,
