Ms. Lindemann,
What a joy to have known you as a student and a true blessing to have known you as an adult. I will miss you dearly!

Sally was such an excellent dedicated teacher. I knew that any child that I placed in her classroom was going to learn not only the academics, but about life and living. Her spirited wonderful personality will be greatly missed by all. I wish to extend my sympathy to her family.

It is very rare to have a teacher, particularly an elementary school teacher, who touched so many lives in such a positive way. Everyone who knew Sally was better for it. My husband (who had Sally as a teacher in the 60s) and I (who had her during the 70s) are deeply saddened by her passing, and all our sympathy goes out to her family for their great loss. Look to yourselves - she will always be there.

My best teacher ever - 5th grade in the early 70's at Andersonville. She encouraged and praised often and discovered talents in her students that may have slipped by undeveloped without her notice. There is just nothing like having a teacher tell you you're good at something to make you want to continue doing it, and know that you can.
I remember feeling in that classroom like I was an individual amongst individuals rather than a mass of students who happened to be in the same room at the same time. I think she fostered that in her kids by valuing each of us and also showing us the value of each other. She simply wasn't going to put up with any crap to the contrary.
I was sorry to read of her passing. She touched a lot of lives while we had her.

Dear Family, I only knew Sally as the Queen Mom of the Clarkston Red Hats. She was a wonderful leader and we all will truly miss her and her adventuresome spirit.

Miss Lindeman was my greatest mentor. She taught me to know that I could learn anything, and that I really was smart. I can barely remember a day that I have not thought of her. I am blessed.

Sally touched the lives and hearts of hundreds of Clarkston students. For those of us at Andersonville who learned penmanship, past participles and our times tables from Sally in the 60s, and for those who Sally taught in the 70s, 80s and early 90s, she remains one of our favorite teachers. Moreover, she was always a joy to talk with as we grew into adults. Our prayers are with Sally's entire family.

Sally was a dedicated teacher and I appreciated the help that she gave me when serving on numerous textbook and curriculum studies.
