I could spend a long time talking about the many. many extraordinary qualities possessed by SALA. but Id like to focus on two qualities which stand out in my mindqualities which illuminated SALA as a person of character and commitment. SALA was born In Poland. In the shadow of persecution and. eventually. horror. She fled her homeland with her family to escape the Holocaust. As an immigrant to this country. SALA understood what it was to be from someplace else. to be a stranger In a strange new land. This profound experience honed in SALA an extraordinary sense of compassiona compassion she demonstrated throughout her per. sonal and political life.
