Not sure what to say?

The memories I have of Suzie are filled with laughter, long talks, and sometimes of daring experiences! I so appreciated reading her wonderful life story. I know she will be missed by all who knew and loved her. May we all be inspired by her legacy of kindness towards others.

My sympathy and prayers go out to you.

Suzie, a/k/a "The Midnight Visitor" spent hours on our front steps on Kenmore talking about life. Even back then she showed a sensitivity to how we were all God's beloved creatures and our actions impact others. I am not surprised that she found a career in ministry. My sympathy and prayers to all her family.

Sue has given so much to each of her family and friends in her circle of love and strength! I am honored to have been her friend and recipient of her wild and crazy humor, hugs, and wisdom! I love you, Sue!

I had the privilege of working with Sure in the Chaplaincy department at Focus on the Family. She was a GREAT lady! Her compassion touched everyone she helped. Her laughter and humor brightened every day. Her commitment to family and friends was exemplarily. She embodied the Proverbs 31 woman.

Carole and family
I am saddened to hear of Suzanne's passing. I had seen a picture of a woman I thought had to be her in a Focus on the Family magazine a while back. God bless you all.

As a young person growing up in the Nazarene Church, Susie was my Sunday School teacher. I also was fortunate to have her mother Geneva as a teacher also. I used to go over to Frank & Geneva's on Saturdays and do yard work for them when I was younger. May the memories stay with you forever.

Susie and I lost track of each other many years ago, but it is clear that she continued her good works. From her friends in Colorado it is also clear that she maintained her positive attitude and cheerful presence. It is a great shock to know that she if gone and reminds us all to give our lives to helping others. In that way she serves as guide for us all, even in death.

All of us who went to high school with Susie remember her great smile and laugh. I can honestly hear it now. What a character! Susie and I were on the Debate Team and had a ball. I'm sure she went on to touch many other lives during her time here, and all of us will remember her for the joy of life she modeled.

I remember the fun slumber parties at Susie's house and our Giddipip meetings. She was always smiling and well liked by all.

Quite a few years after high school we met for lunch a few times in Denver and I was sorry she was unable to attend our last reunion.

My sympathy goes out to Susie's family and all her friends who like me, surely have many, many good memories of her.
