I just wanted to let the family know how sad I was to hear Suzanne passed away. I met Suzanne many years ago, when I first started at the Salt Lake Valley Health Dept some 30yr. ago. In fact Suzanne and I recently had a conversation, of how there were not too many of us "old timers" left. She was a wonderful person with an angel spirit. I have never met anyone else like Suzanne. She was the BEST of the BEST! I will be forever grateful that I had the chance to know her. I will miss her sweet sweet soul and her zest for life! Not many people get to meet angles on earth, but I got to be a friend to one. Suzanne opened your heart and showed the meaning of love for one another. God Bless you all!

Dear Lisa and Family,
These last 3 years spent with Suzi, serving in the Relief Society, visiting teaching together, singing in the ward choir together have been truly a sweet privilege for me. This RS presidency has been through so much together - that is probably what has helped to bond us so closely. Suzi was an amazing example of charity and service. Her energy and endless enthusiasm to serve others will be an example to me forever. I look forward to the day we are all reunited, never to be separated again. May you feel the constant comfort of the Lord's Spirit as you remember your sweet sister, aunt, cousin.

Lisa,
I was saddened to hear about your loss my heart goes out to you.
Suzanne was the happiest most loving person I have ever met. She always had a smile on her face and a song in her heart.
Suzanne will be greatly missed by all those that knew her.

I did not get a chance to care for Suzanne, as was planned to do, because she decided to find her way home first. As I read her obituary I realized I had worked with Suzanne in the past. I was working with pediatric home care, and many times my patients would turn out to be Suzanne's patients too and we would cooridinate our services to be sure the children got all that they needed. There was always that note of desire to serve in her voice which encouraged me to do the same. I want the family to know that we are here for you to help you through this very difficult time. May the Lord bless you through the long days ahead. Have a Merry Christmas for I know this is what Suzanne would want.

A Beautiful Life Full of Deeds
A Helping Hand to All in Need
Sincere and True in Heart and Mind
What A Beautiful Memory to Leave Behind.
It was such a pleasure and an honor
knowing Suzanne. I did some home visits with her when I joined the NFP program at the SLVHD, and was impressed by her love and care for the babies and families she worked with. I will miss her beautiful smile, cheerful face and a very positive attitude.
May her soul rest in peace.

I really enjoyed getting to know Suzanne when I worked at the So. East WIC clinic. She always had such a positive attitude. Our clients were fortunate to have someone like Suzanne be their nurse. I was saddened to hear of her passing this week. My thoughts are with all of her loved ones during this time of loss.

One of my first experiences with Suzanne was when she led the singing to the primary children. She had chimes that she handed out to the children and then a big chart that when she pointed to the note the child would play their chime. It was so fun! She helped music come alive for my daughters. She was quick to ask me how I was doing before I had a chance to ask her. Always selfless. I loved Suzanne.

Suzanne was an angel with a cool sense of humor. All the families and children and co-workers whose lives she touched are saddened by her passing, but so thankful that they had the opportunity to know her. I know the people in heaven are now enjoying her wonderfully sweet personality. Thanks, Suzanne for helping me be a better person!

Dear Barnes Family,
You won't remember me, but I worked with and for Marv at United Park City Mines in Keetley from 1956 until 1964, while I was a student at the U of U. My young wife and I lived in Keetley several years in one of the mining company houses. I knew your Mom and some of you as children.
I have wonderful memories of those days. Your Dad was my mentor and I learned much about geology working for him. He always set the sort of example I have tried throughout my life to follow in my relations with others -- in how to be a true human being. We went bow hunting for deer together many years and had a favorite spot in the Strawberry area. His loss at such a young age was a terrible blow to me and to everyone who knew and loved him.
I am sad to hear of Suzanne's passing. Although I never knew her as an adult, I understand she was a wonderful person. You have my deepest sympathies in this difficult time.

I was so sad to hear of Suzanne's passing. She has been my daughter's nurse through early intervention and what a dear she always was to myself and both of my kids. If it weren't for the outward signs that her body showed you would have never known she was sick. She always came happy and never complained or even mentioned something was wrong and when I asked she just said well I've had to have some treatments but enough about me how's Izzy. This world and especially children and their parents with learning or developmental delays are going to miss her greatly.

Dear Kids: I'm so saddened at Suzanne's passing. I'm sad I didn't know she was ill. I love your family so much and as Jim just said, we seem to only find time at funerals to meet and share our feelings. Uncle Marv and Aunt Joan are very happy to have her with them. This brings back the memories of both of their passings, as well. It was so hard to see them leave us. Much of my life was surrounded by your family and parties with you. I'm so grateful for all of you and please know that I think of you often. I know this will make me stay in touch with you better. I pray for your feelings of comfort and memories at this time. All my love!

Dear Lisa and Family,
Suzanne was a wonderful person! Suzanne and I were nurse mates for a few years. She helped 3 of my grandchildren. This world has lost a wonderful person. She'll be truly missed by many many. She knew in whom she had trusted, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I love you Suzanne!

Cousins,
I was shocked hear from my brother Bob that Suzanne had passed. It just shows that we need to get together more often.
It's too bad that the only time seems to be for funerals...
She will be sorely missed!

Suzanne was so wonderful!!! She started taking care of my disabled son when he was 2months old.. She loved him so much and you could just tell he would love it when she would sing to him which she did very often. When he was 2 she was supposed to stop seeing him but said "I just can't do you mind If I still come" and of course we still wanted her to come. She had the most positive attitude while going through all of this and never complained. We will miss her very much.
With Love,
Joey Leung and baby Jaxson

Suzanne was a wonderful co-worker. She always was smiling and very fun to talk to and extremely knowlegable in her field. I will miss Suzanne greatly. She will always have a place in my heart.

I am so sad to hear of Suzanee's passing but glad she is relieved of her pain. She was my daughter's nurse through the early intervention program and was so wonderful. Lauren loved her and always responded to her cheerful voice. She brought us a special spoon to help her learn to eat and little sponge toothbrushes to keep her gums cleans. It seems so little but it meant so much to us during such a difficult time. She helped Lauren so much in her development and we are forever grateful for her. Suzanne would be glad to know that she is breathing off of her ventilator 12 hours a day. We never thought that would happen. I will miss her so much.

To all of my dear cousins,
How grateful I am for getting to see so many of you this summer at Lynn and Gloria's. It was so wonderful to sit and once again bask in the sunlight that is Suzanne. She makes you feel good with every smile and word out of her mouth. She will be sorely missed, but will once again share her loving smile and precious spirit with those she loves and has missed for years, your mom and dad.
How I wish I could be with each of you this weekend to put my arms around you and share in your loss. Know that I love each of you and am thinking of you at this time. My thoughts and prayers are for you to know of a loving Heavenly Father whose plan is perfect, even when we cannot see the whole picture. Love you all.

Dear Extended Family of Suzanne Barnes,
I remember Suzanne well from her childhood years spent in the beautiful Heber Valley. My! What a pure and sweet spirit she possessed! This old world would have been much the sadder if not for the hundreds and hundreds of lives that she has touched for the better. I am positive that she has enjoyed a glorious and wonderful reunion with her parents, Marvin and Joan, as well as with many other loved ones. May your memories of her be ever tender and wonderful for you 'til the day that you are reunited with her.
