She was my first 'best friend' at Westtown when I transferred there in the 6th grade. We remained in touch all our lives and I knew what a terrific adult she became. She is in my heart forever with her distinctive laugh and generous, loving spirit. The world is less one giving and sharing individual.

We barely overlapped at Westtown, but I go to know Priscilla thru working with her on several 5-year reunions. I did NOT know of her specific battles with two cancers, for which I regret not asking more questions/ being there [from a distance] for support. Thank-you Jennifer for your loving tribute!

We went all through lower school together, maybe even kindergarten! I’ve kept in touch with her journey through Nan Butterfield. Love and healing.

We were Westtown School Class of 1964 classmates. I remember a youthful, blond girl with her life before her. I’m glad to hear she learned and contributed so much to her family and community. Holding you in the light. Catey Winner Salam.

Priscilla was kind person and pleasure to be around always. The world was a better place because of her light. My deepest sympathies to her family.

What a gorgeous picture. I was one of Priscilla’s nurses and we were friends as well, having mutual respect for each other. Enjoyed her telling me about her life, liked to keep her comfortable. Appreciated her intellect. I miss her but glad she is free of discomfort and to see Eliezer.
