Sally, So glad you had a good life. I learned "Illegitimi non carborundum" from you.

I was Sally's fellow grad student and sometime roommate at Cornell in the early 1970s.

Sally was a great research partner and roommate--smart, cheerful, and a focused worker. I'm privileged to have known her during this period and happy to know that she went on to live her life fully.

Sally was a dedicated community member. Joel watched over her with love and affection. Our thoughts are with you all during this sad time of Sally's passing.
