Sassen family, Gary and I send our condolences on the passing of Sue. She was kind, friendly and would help anyone in need. We had the privilege of knowing Sue as a friendly neighbor since 1976.

Sue was a 1952 classmate and good friend of my mother, Carolyn Glass. She was a sweet lady, she never knew a stranger, she was always smiling or laughing, and she will be missed by her family and everyone who knew and loved her.
