Not sure what to say?

I worked for Harry at The College of ES&F, and he always spoke so glowingly of Sally and her Collie Dogs. She admired her husband dearly, and often spoke of their treks in the woods. I know she was also a lover of birds and gardening. My family will always be indebted to Harry and her for their loving ways.

A wonderful and gracious lady. I worked for her at the Quonseteria at SU when I was a freshman in 1948 (and I worked for Harry from '75 'til he retired). They were an admirable couple.

The graciousness and devotion to each other shown by Sally and Harry is something I will remember all my life and will try to convey to others. Sally gamely and pleasantly dealing with her challenges and Harry devotedly helping. And vice versa I am sure too. They were always cheerful and glad to see everyone at the church in Jamesville no matter what their circumstances. Please know they are missed but they are not forgotten and have been truly inspirational.
