Dr. Richard Maizell wrote a sympathy message

“Having belatedly just heard the news of Dale's passing I am deeply saddened. A bright light for many of us has winked out. While we lost track of each other, for many years Dale's presence at Hopatcong High School was simply a gift to me. Dale was approachable, encouraging, kind, and completely connected to kids. Her support and acceptance of me as a novice teacher made all the difference. And, her laughter could lighten the darkest of moods. Her absence leaves an unfillable void.”

“Dale was one of the first teachers I had the pleasure to work with as a novice in the profession. Her kindness, caring, support, and encouragement helped shape me. She was always so generous with her time, her materials, her heart, and her home. Like me, those who had the chance to know her were truly blessed. She will be missed by many. Please accept my most heartfelt sympathies. May her memory be a warm light in your heart, and may you find solace and peace during this difficult time.”

Dr. Christopher W. Parker wrote a comment

“Mrs. Salomone was a very present joy at the High School. I was in the class of 1974. I never was fortunate enough to be in one of the classes she taught, but Mrs. Salomone knew who I was and was very supportive. I did not have to be in the class with an educator like Mrs. Salomone to learn that life is to celebrate, learn from and serve others. She demonstrated a passion for existence, which is an important motivation, to this day.”
