Sally Ride

sally: r I p you were brave going into space!

God is a God of all Comfort and he will Comfort the family's..My heartfelt condolences to the family's..

Hi my name is Bryan Kitchens i feel so sorry for her family that went through those hard times. Rest In Peace Sally Ride 2012.

Once in awhile God just gives all the right DNA for intelligence, physical strength and emotional cool to one person. Then that person may or may not have the character and courage to use those gifts. WOW, Sally did make use of those gifts. The world is a better place because she was here. Heck, I did not even know her and I miss that she is no longer on this planet. But then, she has some experience with leaving this earth.

“Lift up tour eyes to heaven and see. Who has created these things? It is the One who is brings out their army by number; He calls them all by name. Because of his vast dynamic energy, and his awe-inspiring power, Not one of them is missing…Isaiah 40:26
Sally was a true pioneer for her field of study. She valued education which led to the fulfillment of her dreams. You will be remembered.

Bless you Dr Ride. I would work at night and San Diego State physics/Astronomy by day. When I was just so tired I always thought what would Dr Sally say!!Get up girl and I did. Bless you dear mentor and always Guiding Star. Xoxo to Bear

was a great role model

an amazing woman

sorry

I remember her patience and gracious manner with my grandson at SDSU. Quite a lady. She enriched so many lives

i rember sally on that journey what wonderful person to be able to do this so sorry for your loss she walking with the lord now

I remember learning about her in school. Its truly sad to hear about her passing. May she be remembered for all her accomplishments. And may those that loved her find comfort in the hope God provides.

Courage beyond measure

Tears to the passing of a female legend who, like another aviatrix with her plane, this one with a spaceship, dared to dream the impossible, and go to space. Sally, you did give us a "Ride" we will never forget, or you. Thank you, for your dedication, and girl's dreams, that, heh, we can do this too, and it is not just a "man's" world. Women all over the world thank you. You'll always be in the history books for what you have accomplished and what you did, and nobody can take that away from you. You will always be remembered.

When I was a little girl I wanted to be just like her and go into space. I wish I had known she was sick. I would have prayed for her.

I knew Sally from her activities at Stanford University and as a fellow member of the Columbia Accident Investigation Board. She was a dedicated scientist who strove to push the limits of human activity beyond this fragile planet. We will all miss her.

i have lit a candle in honor of the late dr ride who was an all- american lady may she rest in peace

I really admired you.

Tam I am sure you ate devastated I hurt for your loss of a life partner. I will pray for your peace as well as all other family members. God bless our hero Sally.

Warm thoughts are reaching out. Wisdom is what made you powerful. Power comes from caring, loving and sharing. Thank you Ms Sally Ride, being the teacher who shared her knowledge with others. RIP- With Deepest Sympathy.

Having grown up at a time when women had to "fight" for equality, your journey was huge!! I really admired you.

May she rest in peace. Thank you God for giving us such an amazing woman that shared her gift and life with us. My prayers and love go out to the ones she leaves behind.

Sally,

Thank you for your service to our country in the name of science. Some of us were never meant to carry a gun into battle; your battle was to push back every frontier you encountered.

I'd hoped to thank you at the final CAIB public hearing in Washington, but there were too many around you. That proved to be a pivotal moment, one that led to the safe conclusion of the STS program. My family and I were invited to Florida to watch the final launch.

Now, you're in Heaven, you know the whole story. I'll bet you were amazed by who was there to welcome you home.
Now, you rest. See you someday.

You blazed a trail so that other women can follow. May you RIP.

Although I was born too soon to be an astronaut, Sally Ride demonstrated that women are making some advances in science. I followed her career with joy, and was excited when she became a physics professor after leaving NASA. She left an important mark on women's and scientists' history. I'll miss knowing that she was still inspiring young scientists. My respects to her loved ones at losing such a special person.

You were a "GREAT AMERICAN " !!!
Rest in Peace :)

RIP my hero

Life in this system is not promise to no one .Soon we will be in a life of exquisite delight ps. 37:11

RIP sally and tam it will get better just take it one day at a time... Sally U were the the best they had.....

What an inspiration she was to us all.

Thank you for being an inspiring figure of my generation. God bless your partner and family.

Ms. Ride was an inspiration to us all, and I will think of her as soaring off into the Heavens again for one last time. My prayers are with all of you closest to her, who will miss her the most of all.

Teaching is truly the most honorable of all professions. Thank you.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Family and friends of Sally Ride, she will be missed, may theses words bring you comfort and give you he and peace of mind John :28,29

I will always remember and admire Ms. Ride. I just wish we had more people like her. Thank you Sally.

Gone but never forgotten for what you did to make little girls believe that they could do ANYTHING!

Ride, Sally Ride! Rest in Peace!

"Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints."-Psalm 116:15.Dr. Ride needn't wave banners nor ignite fireworks, as her silent courage and dedication is a witness to her Americanism and loyalty,

Thank You for what you did for all of us Women ! God Bless You and Your Family.

Dr. Ride is my husbands hero. Great lady.

Gone but not forgotten.

Dr. Ride was an amazing woman. Even before she had the courage (like all astronauts) to go into space, she had the courage to insist on studying physics when most of us girls were discouraged from pursuing any higher mathematical or scientific studies. I wonder how many girls and women have discovered a love of science or math and the opportunity to pursue careers in those fields because of Sally? Imagine the discoveries that will be made and how many lives have been, and will be, improved as a result of Sally's influence on girls and women! Now THAT's a LEGACY!!!

May God give peace, strength, and comfort to all of Sally's family and friends. May her memory be eternal!

Dr.Sally Ride Was One Of My Favorite Astronauts. I Was Dedicated To The Space Program. Dr. Ride Was A Unique Female Pioneer. I Loved The Way She Was So Dedicated To Children. So Intelligent. God Bless HER Mom Joyce, Sister Bear & Great Friend Tam O'Shaughnessy. (Ride Sally Ride With God's Heavenly Angels). Paul O'Keefe.

Thank you Ms Ride for the extra choices you gave women in the work place. My prayers and condolences go out to her family. You should be very proud of her accomplishments. RIP Ms. Ride.

Dr. Ride showed young girls and old women that life always holds promise and to not let gender get in your way. Bless her shining light now that it rests in the heavens permanently. God be with her family and her partner.

Sally Ride, you were an inspiration to us all. God Bless you and your family.

Dr. Ride was a brilliant scientist, teacher, author, among other achievements. A fine human being who left us to soon. She was a shining example of all of us. My heartfelt sympathies to her family and friends and colleagues.

You can't be a candle if your light don't shine~~All Sally Ride did in her life is shine~~All Sally Ride is doing in her passage is shining again and again and God takes the best with him~~

An inspiration to all, especially women and young girls. She will never be forgotten. God bless and keep her family, friends, and her life partner.

Truly an inspiration to all women and young girls. A very graceful person and amazing teacher. Prayers for her family and friends.

Thank you for inspiring so many women to be move than they ever dreamed they could be. I am one of those women and you will be missed. Your legacy will be eternal!

The family of Sally Ride,
Ms. Ride, you have no idea how many females you've inspiried. May you seek more adventures, may your Tam know that you are with her & her family. My wife, Leslie & myself, Maria send you our Heartfelt Condolences, thoughts, & prayers, to your partner, Tam O'Shaughnessy & her Ms. Ride's family.

Sincerely, Maria & Leslie

Our heart goes out to you Tam and Sally's family. Many of us in CO are mourning your loss.

I was explaining to my three-year-old last night at bed the the first woman astronaut had completed her journey and said a few things about what she had done. She asked if she could do those things. I could easily say 'yes'.

Thank you Sally.

Sally was truly one-of-a-kind. Tam, my heart goes out to you.

RIP You were an Inspiration to many. You will be Missed. Your Friends and Family at KSC will miss you. Those were the Days! KSC Has changed so Much.

She did something I dreamed of doing as a little girl "the first American woman in space!" What an amazing life of accomplishments. Peace to Tam & her family.

may she go with god

I watched with millions of people, when Sally Ride made her epic trip into space. She was a true pioneer and a role model to a countless number of girls, my own included. When the shuttle was launched, dozens were holding signs that said, "Ride, Sally, Ride". Ride on, Sally. There is a new star in the heavens.

Sally was a pioneer first and formost.

Sally Ride is now riding the brightest star in heaven. As a cancer patient myself she has taught me to be incurably alive.

Memory eternal.

Sally, You will always be remembered!

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

R.I.P.Sally, You rode into the heavens once came back to us. Now you took another ride to watch over us. You will make God a fine angel R.I.R Sally Ride

Sally visited my home when she and her friend Molly were students at Stamford. She played tennis with my daughter at lake Tahoe. They stayed with us in San Diego so that they could go to the Shaksperian Festival in S.D. We had so much fun,and she brightened my household with her smile and optimism. She loved my meals and like the good ole days sent us a beautiful Thank You note. My daughter Pam, and I cried,and asked God to put his loving arms around Sally, that beautiful woman would gave us all HOPE.She died on my daughters birthday. Patricia Connolly Russell

To the Ride family,so sorry for your loss.Sally Ride was an inspiration for all "little" girls.With her accomplishments, I was able to use her as an example for my then 6 and 12 year old daughters.That even if your a female the sky is the limit!!! Thank you so much

I will never forget her. She was inspirational to me and I will be forever grateful to her for her courage.

Shalom.

With deepest sympathy to the Ride family during your time of grief...Psalm 46:1...God is for us a refuge and strength, A help that is readily to be found during difficult times...May God provide you with peace and comfort to endure the days ahead.

Thank you Sally for your grace and professionalism to open the path for all women. You have our pride and admiration for all you have accomplished. You are among the stars now and shining as bright as the brightest star. You will be missed.

Dr. Sally Ride was a true inspiration. She is an hero and will be greatly missed.
