Sally was my first "boss" in my first real job after finishing graduate school in 1976. She was kind, respectful, engaging, and very dedicated to the welfare of the residents in her care as well as her staff. She also had a great sense of humor and a playful side, which helped to make some of the more stressful work situations a bit easier. It was a pleasure working with her and with a great team of other staff whom she assembled.
