From the "Syracuse Herald" dated Nov. 10, 1926:
MRS. JAMES PASS
By the death of Mrs. James Pass, Syracuse has lost a daughter in who in the years of her busy and useful womanhood ranked second to none in the moral beauty of her example and influence, in her social virtues and in the manifold proofs she gave of warm-hearted, unselfish benevolence. Through her inheritance of the cherished name of Salisbury and through the happy union from which she derived her matronly title, Mrs. Pass was the gracious link between two families that won and held a distinguished and honored place in the industrial history of Syracuse. For more than a span of a generation, in the years of her model married life as well as of the widowhood that followed all too soon, it was her dearest mission, beyond the circle of her domestic affection and loyalty, to give her ungrudging aid to the destitute and helpless, to contribute her active service to organized charity in many forms, and, in short, to discharge, with loving sympathy, every obligation that wealth and social station owe to the unfortunate and afflicted. Those who knew her best can bear testimony to the never-failing delight and enthusiasm wherewith she constantly rendered services of this fine character. Every bounty she bestowed in the line of her charitable endeavors, every act of public and private helpfulness she performed, every practical share she bore either as a leader or a follower in the organized philanthropies of her city, was made doubly benignant and efficacious by her temperamental cheerfulness and her fine womanly grace. In these respects, the generous and compassionate activities of her mature years were not less than a local benediction. Her association work for charity and social welfare was so diversified that the full list of her affiliations with good causes covers nearly every conspicuous Syracuse movement of that class in the last quarter of a century or more. In many of them she was not only an industrious factor but a trustee or director; and it was because her sympathetic and efficient leadership was hailed as a guaranty of success. The Memorial Hospital, The Community Chest, The Associated Charities, Camp Hillcrest, The Arria Huntington Foundation, Harmony Circle, The Solvay Guild: these are but a few of the outstanding institutions and enterprises of which she was a dependable inspiration and on which she left the impress of her attractive personality and her gentle ardor. The list might be many times multiplied without exhausting the detailed record of her noble life work for the benefit of her fellow creatures. It was surely a life well spent, and rich in its exemplary virtues. Its ending is almost a tragic loss to many of the beneficiaries of her tireless liberality. To those who labored with her and who found in her fellowship a continuous incentive, her death is a severe affliction.To her bereaved relatives the sympathy of a grateful community will go out in unstinting measure. Theirs is the heaviest burden, and yet they will have the solace inseparable from the beautiful memory of what she was and what she wrought in her fruitful lifetime.
