Still have your email message from September 5, 2001 --- you had just started your new position with the Port Authority of NY/NJ and wanted to do lunch with me. You sounded so excited. Just can't believe in a couple of months it will be 23 years since your tragic passing.
Have spoken to your mom, Carole, on occasion. She will never be the same without you. RIP always

Guenevere: Your message brings back so many fond memories of Susan. Staying with her friend personifies who she was. My heart is sad today but I’m glad for the reminder of what a strong, courageous and loyal friend Susan was. Thank you.

Susan was my mentor at SWE. I was just getting started and would have greatly benefited from her seasoned experience. Women in engineering was no joke back in the day.
Long ago I heard that she stayed with her friend who was handicapped on one of the lower floors so that they wouldn´t be alone awaiting rescue.
Her character is tough to match.
I really hope that scholarship grows, in memory of her indefatigable spirit.

Susan had a beautiful smile and a gentle manner. She always gave a helping hand to projects that enriched others' lives. She will be remembered and loved by those of us who were privileged to know her and call her our friend.

I worked with Susan in 98-99. I will always remember her kind and gentle manner as well as her sense of humor. I teased her often but only because I loved her. Rest in peace my friend.

I have such fond memories of working with Susan at JFK. I would very much like to talk with a survivor who was with her on 9/11 to hear their story.
September 11, 2010
I still miss her, but I do remember her coming to my office on her last day of work to tell me she took a position at the Port Authority. She was happy and looked it. Her beaming smile is what I remember.
I still am so touched by her coming to see me that day, but, of course, that is who Susan is.

Susan, we still miss you in the Society of Women Engineers. Susan was the one who was always there. She showed up. She made it happen. And because SHE showed up and SHE made it happen, I vowed that I would do the same.
I am happy to report the establishment of a permanent scholarship in Susan's name, the Susan Miszkowicz Memorial Scholarship of the Society of Women Engineers. This scholarship will go to a deserving woman engineering student each year. Over $35,000 in donations were collected to endow this scholarship in perpetuity.
For more information about this scholarship you may visit our website at www.swe.org or email me.
I know Susan would be proud.

Susan, thinking about you today as I often think about you when I glance up at the picture I have of you at my desk. I miss your friendship.

Susan, you'll always be missed. I'm writing this in March 2003, and although a year and a half has passed since that terrible day in September 2001 that changed the world forever, I think about you every day. All of us who knew you were deeply affected when you were taken away without warning and without cause. You were a very special person and your absence leaves a great void. I'm having trouble expressing myself here, but I'll close by saying God bless you and God bless America. Rest in peace, my friend.

Dear Carol,
Susan remains in our prayers. The tributes reflect the goodness she brought to those who knew her. Although, I knew her less than others, there is one thing I am sure of. She was loved by many. God bless and strenthen you.

I am writing this just after the 1 year anniversary of your death. The lives of your Mom, Dad and many friends go on without you, but you are always thought of and deeply missed. We exchanged gifts, as usual, this past Christmas, went to dinner for our birthdays, and visited each others' homes, but your death has left a void in everything we do that can't be filled. We do the same things, but they are not, nor will they ever be the same again because you are not with us to share in them. To never be able to exchange another birthday or Christmas gift, meet for dinner, go to a Broadway Show or sporting event, plan another vacation, talk on the phone, receive another email or card is still hard to comprehend - almost inconceivable! It happened much too early for those you left behind.
I know that you are in Heaven with your Grandmother, who you loved so dearly, my Parents and my Grandparents. Please tell my Parents and Grandparents that I love them and miss them, and know that I am grateful to have had all of you in my life even if it was for such a short period of time.

I went to Bishop Kearney with Susan and remember her as a warm, incredibly sweet person. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

A gentle and beautiful person and soul on this earth has been taken from us at such a young and tender age. May you rest in the loving arms of the God you loved so much and loves you dearly. May you smile down on those left behind to miss and grieve your loss and help us in our sorrow. Ann Stuart Carraher, Bishop Kearney Alumnae, 1971.

I met Susan in college. I was the Sophmore that bugged the Senior. Usually to get a smile out of her.
Thanks for all the cards Susan.

I worked with Susan briefly at JFK where we shared many a lunch chatting about everything from politics to dating. I will never forget how we laughed about each other's boyfriend stories.

My heartfelt sympathy to Susan's family. I went to Bishop Kearney High School with Susan. I always sat right behind Susan in class. She was so sweet and gentle. I will not forget her ever.

Susan was someone with whom I could have spent my life with. She was beautiful, intelligent, sensitive, compassionate and thoughtful. I considered her a very close friend and will miss her greatly.

America Cries
We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn
