Sallie Kinch was a superb teacher. She was receptive to augmenting the curriculum for special needs students. She taught with excellence in the Open Space Format of the 1970's as well as in a self contained classroom.
Sallie was a devoted loving daughter. She often spoke of the times that she shared with her mother.
Sallie knitted a beautiful sweater that was enjoyed by a friend of mine who was challenged by cancer.
Sallie will be remembered as creative, intelligent as well as a person who displayed integrity and dedication.

I remember Miss Kinch from Dundee Elementary School in the late sixties. Thirty years in the Greenwich school system nurturing generations of students is an impressive feat! I didn't realize that she was friendly with Mr. Signa, the irrepressible orchestra, marching band, and stage band director at GHS. May God grant Sallie eternal rest, and may light perpetual shine upon her.
