I had the privilege of working at UH with Sally for many years, and I have always greatly respected and admired her. I will miss her sense of humor, and the way she went about her work--with such passion, and dedication to getting it right. My condolences to Sally's family--she will be greatly missed.

During my years at UH working with data, Sally was always a true friend and colleague. My sincere sympathy is extended to her family and her many friends.

Over the decades I have known Sally the things I have admired most are her wit, her intelligence, and her wonderful laugh. I don't think I will ever be able to forget the sound of her laughter. Just thinking of it makes me smile. She shared her love of old movies, soft rock, and taught me some of those 1960's dance moves! She will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

Sally epitomized University Hospital's core values - especially compassion, excellence,and teamwork. UH has experienced a deep loss in Sally's passing. Her wry sense of humor was an attribute I especially enjoyed. My deepest sympathies to Sally's family. Sally's legacy will live on through her UH colleagues and friends.

I worked with Sally in the Quality Center. Her valuable knowledge and friendship will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to her family.

Sally was our data expert for many years. It was an honor to work with you. You will be missed.

I have had the pleasure of working with Sally for many years. While I will miss all of her expertise and help, it is her warm winning smile that I will always remember her for. My thoughts and prayers are with all of her family and friends.

I recall when I worked in the Quality Center with Sally in the 90's and we tired of everyone using sports metaphors, like "ball is in your court," for example. We decided we should use housework metaphors instead. Sally came up with the best and I remember it to this day: "The shirt is on your ironing board." Thanks, Sally, for the memories. Your mortal body is gone but your immortal spirit lives on in the lives of those whom you've touched. Love, Doris O'D
