How devastating to just find out about Sues passing! I knew Sue from my Cutler days and some of her immediate family as well as her ex, Mike! Worked with her at GM the whole time she was there and had some of the same friends. I'm blown away by this! All of my sympathy goes out to her family. Sue was a good girl and I will miss her dearly! Way to young!
Your friend, Mike Carlson
