A class act. Sue was one of my heroines when I was in Jr. High and she never lost that great wit and sense of fun. A neat and very special lady.

Susan made an impression on me when I met her in 1957 at Oklahoma state university. Her quick wit and thoughtful self made for instant as well as a lasting friendship. Blessings to her. And thanks for the memories!

My memories of time with Sue date back to the 1980s in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Since that time I have met and enjoyed the company of many of her family and friends. Spending time at her bedside during her last week of life was difficult, but we did see a return of her courageous self between the rigors of hospital confinement. I am grateful for having known Sue. Sorry that departure for my home in CA will mean missing the planned services.
