Condolences to the Family

It is with heartfelt sadness I hear of Mrs Salm’s passing.  I’ve known her for many years.  We worked together at Peoples Drug Store at the Manor Shopping Center in the early 70s when I was in high school working part time in the evenings and on weekends.  I went to school with her son, Tom.  She was a great lady! Always cheerful, always smiling, and fun to be around.  A unique person without a doubt. She will be sadly missed by so many.  Jacki and I send our deepest sympathy to the entire Salm family. Especially to Tom and Bonnie and their children, Mike and Grace, Kathy and Sue and their families as well. God Bless.

I will miss Grammy always. She was my best friend and the kindest person I’ve ever known. I can’t believe she is gone, but I know her love, which was so strong and constant for all living things and people, will live on.
