Suzanne was a very special lady, mother, teacher and friend. I taught with her at Lincoln and she always made our school such a special place. She will be missed by many who loved and respected her.

Suzanne and Judy had a great "teen-age son" relationship in St. Charles. Then came Imperial! Suzanne and Paul introduced us to Cape Cod, and we all shared many days and hours searching, finding, and opening. Suzanne was a special lady with a huge heart for children and all of her friends. We're very happy she was a part of our lives.

I just remembered something Suzanne taught me - when we were expecting our first grandchild, she said to pick a tune or lullaby and sing it to the child and he or she will know which Grandma I am from that. It worked! Connie Doll

I'm so sorry for your loss! When Suzanne retired, I took over her classroom. Whenever I'd see her at gatherings after her retirement, she would ask me how "our" classroom was and if I was taking good care of it. She gave me some of the best teaching advice: get enough sleep and eat 3 good meals a day so you have the energy to teach. She was such a sweet lovely woman and I was lucky to know her!
