I was deeply saddened to learn about the loss of Susan. Susan & I were in CHI'S together at Baylor in the early '70s. She & I were in the choir & handbell choir at CABC for many, many years. I considered her a dear friend & I will miss her so much. My prayer is that God will surround your entire family with His loving arms to give you peace & comfort. May He give you the strength to face the difficult days ahead.

I met Susan in the 1970's in Sunday School at Columbus Avenue Baptist Church. She encountered me twenty-five years later and remembered me! I remember her with a smile and with fond memories of her friendliness.

Susan was a wonderful, even tempered individual, sharp witted, kind to the extreme to others...and so many other things. I worked with Susan for 9 years at Baylor and enjoyed her as a colleague and a friend. Susan truly loved Baylor and I know the law school appreciated her. She will be missed. My thoughts are with her parents, family and many friends.

Susan was my good friend at UNT School of Library Sciences 1972-1973. We started library school together, and we even took cataloging class together. She was also my suite mate. At library school, she said that she was going to work as a librarian at Baylor; it is good to know how happy she was at Baylor Law Library.

I will truly miss her.

I worked with Susan for 23 years at the Baylor Law School. She was not only a wonderful co-worker, but a good friend. Susan was always a ray of sunshine in my day. She always exhibited a love for those around her and it was obvious that she love Lord with all of her heart. I know that God prepared a mansion for her! She will be missed by those whose lives she has touched. My thoughts and prayers will be with the family.
