My condolences to Sue's family and loved ones. I remember Sue as the leader of our client service Team at the Northern Trust Treasury department in the mid 1980s. In between client calls, I remember that she enjoyed crossword puzzles and seemed to like hard boiled eggs for breakfast. Our clients treasured their conversations with her.
She will be fondly remembered by her friends and co-workers at the Northern Trust.

My codolences to Tom and the family. I look through the obits to see if anyone I know has passed. I was surprised to see Sue had passed. She was too young. When you get older, I guess this is what we do - check the obits. My sympathy to all of her family.
