In memorial of Dr. Sally Roesch Wagner
On behalf of the Matilda Joslyn Gage Foundation, and all of us who are part of the Gage Center family, we are saddened to hear of the passing of Dr. Sally Roesch Wagner on June 11th. She wasn't just our founder, but a mentor and friend. Her depth of knowledge about Matilda Gage and passion for social justice issues was infinite. All who knew Sally, who heard her speak or read her books, were encircled by her presence. We never came away from a conversation with Sally without learning something about Matilda, the world around us, or ourselves. We will hold her as an inspiration as we continue the work that she started. She was a gift to our lives and she will always be in our hearts.
The Matilda Joslyn Gage Foundation is honored to announce that the Roesch Wagner family is in the process of establishing a separate fund dedicated specifically to preserving and advancing the full scope of Dr. Sally Roesch Wagner's life’s work. This includes not only Sally's contributions to the Gage Foundation, but also her decades of feminist scholarship, activism, writing, public speaking, and her extensive archives. The details of this fund are still being finalized, and more information about its structure, goals, and how to contribute will be shared soon. The Gage Foundation is aware of and supports the creation of this separate fund and will be working in collaboration with the family as plans take shape.
Sally's family and all of us Gage are deeply grateful for the outpouring of love, support, and generosity you've shown during this time.
