    Sally was a dear friend whose friendship Mark and I cherished. I learned so much from her about being a good person. She was so supportive and positive. Sally made people believe in themselves because she saw no limits. We should all be so brave. Mark and I will miss her terribly. Words are never enough.

    Steve, the new website is wonderful. I love the tribute to Sally. I loved Sally very much. As I mentioned to you recently, she and I were “kindred spirits”. She was a wonderful person and will never be forgotten. I, as you and many others, have great memories of her which will always be in my heart. I look forward to the opening of Good Eats on the 29th and I will see you then.

    Sally has left a mark on my life forever. She was a kind, caring, thoughtful, talented, loving, spunky woman who touched everyone she came in contact with. Her beautiful daughters carry so much of the good that was Sally–how fortunate for them, and for us. I will miss Sally deeply.

    Sally was my friend, sounding board, and walking & yoga buddy. We shared a love of black dogs, good wines, and really ugly shoes. I miss her terribly and will never, ever forget her.
