RIP. Definitely way too young. Very saddened by the news of her passing.

I bring you peace. It may be the peace of plenty and content or the peace of unburied death.

A true pioneer. Very sad to be taken so young.

On a lighter note, I recall an episode of ST.ELSEWHERE where the guys decided to screen a Stag film called "Sally Takes A Ride". Of course, there was a kicker _ it turned out to be a genuine NASA film!

Thank you, Sally.
