I stumbled upon this today, after thinking very much about Susan and our childhoods together. I decided to "google her" and landed here.
Susan was a very dear friend when we were children. We went to camp together. We had some amazing childhood adventures and I really liked her a lot. My sympathies to the family, especially Carl and Mina, who I haven't seen for 45 years.

I will never forget the day Susan walked up to me in the East Brunswick gym and told me if I could walk on a treadmill I could take her kickboxing class. Her inspiration and motivation was infectious. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all in this time mourning.

I am in Minnesota for the summer but have fond memories of aerobics/karate with Susan at OTOW in Ocala. She was such an inspiration and I always smiled throughout the whole class. I told my husband, "You wouldn't believe what we do in aerobics class!"
Susan surely lived life to the fullest even with cancer. Sorry for your loss.
