Not sure what to say?

Carolanne - so sorry to hear of Selma's passing. My sincere condolences to you and may she rest in peace.

She was a very inspirational person visits to Bloodroot were always a great experience

I remember Selma from the first time I went to Bloodroot, almost 40 years ago. I always enjoyed chatting when I ordered. RIP

I loved Selma. Through I lov d Selma. At Bloodroot we met in 1990 we met at Bloodroot. She expanded my world and always made me feel valued and always supported my ideas. I loved her.

Selma and I were friends during our high school days at Bassick. She and I debated fiercely in our debating club with her usually coming out on top. Through the years our class president, Jack Koons, would keep. me abreast of all her humanitarian work. I offer my sincere sympathy to her family and for this wonderful women's achievements.

I went to Bloodroot years ago. Selma was ahead of her time, or should I say right on time. I admire her willingness and voice for justice. God bless her beautiful soul.
