Not sure what to say?

I recently found a picture of Sally Rogers in my photo album from high school and decided to look her up online, which is how I found her Obituary. She was my Latin teacher at Osbourn High School in Manassas, Virginia for 4 years, from 1988 to 1992. I was so grateful to have had a role model who was truly an individual at a school that didn't value originality. Her class was the one place in that school that I felt safe from being bullied for not being like everyone else. She often...

I knew Sally from our days teaching at Crossland HS in MD. She taught Latin and I taught Spanish. I think of her often. I am so sorry for your loss.

I just read the announcement of Sally's passing in the Carolina Review. I actually just spoke of Sally last week. In my freshman year at UNC, I needed to change rooms in Spencer dormitory and I ended up in a triple with 2 junior transfers. Sally was our next door neighbor. I can still see her sitting on her bed, hair in rollers, surrounded by her beloved Grrek, Latin, and Classics.

I loved Sally so mucg, I met her whike working on the Hill in 2000 and she was a good friend to me akways!

I met Sally in my first year at Brenau Academy, she had a beautiful Soul and was very smart. After she graduated from Brenau Academy we lost touch, Sally was a very caring and sweet person. She was one of my big sisters in 1966-67 Year. Wish we could have met again while I was living in Boston in later years. To the Rogers family my deepest sympathy and you are in my Prayes.

Dear family, so sorry for this great sadness. Met Sally 20 + years ago when I moved into her Apartment building. She loved and spoke often of her Family. She will be dearly missed by so many!
Rest in peace, Sally!
Your friend,

We are very sorry for your loss, dear Rogers family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm so sorry to learn of Sal's passing. We met in the Rare Book Room at LC many years ago and have spent many happy times celebrating our mutual birthday and attending lectures and concerts together.

My sincere condolences to Sally's family.

We spent many hours at the barre together and shared many cups of coffee waiting for class. My condolences to Sally's family.
