With the passing of Suzie some of the energy in Enrichment Federal Credit Union is gone. Suzie was tough but fair. She made you think, and was kind to make you feel you were part of her parade. As we remember her let us remember she led many parades. I am one that would always be honored to march with her.
May the angels of the Lord surround her and give her peace.
We have lost a pillar of the Credit Union and a friend.

In the passing of Suzie a piece of the energy in Enrichment Federal Credit Union is now gone. Suzie was tough but fair. She made you think of other ways to do things. When she made her case you wanted to march in her parade. I will always think of her as the one that made me think differently about situations and one that made me feel special when we agreed. I am proud to carry the flag in her parade.
May the angles of the Lord wrap their arms around her and give her piece.

I have known Suzie since a young girl . I worked at Zayres department store with her and Jimmy. Our careers mirrored each others with both of us leaving Zayres and working for finance companies. When I got the Collection Manager job at K25 Suzie was also looking for a change and came to work at the credit union. I was her co-worker,mentor but most importantly, her friend.I feel fortunate to have known her. She was brilliant! We worked closely over the years and wrestled with difficult underwriting decisions almost daily by phone. She was tough as nails when the situation called for it, but had a generous heart and held true to her beliefs.Suzie was a good friend and I will miss her sorely!My prayers are with her family as they struggle to endure a seemingly unbearable loss.

My how time passes, it seems like only yesterday that we were playing Barbie and roller skating in front of the store. Susie was so much a part of my child hood but we grew up and time and distance came between us. My thoughts and prayers are with Jimmy ,the love of her life and her children. Please find some comfort in knowing that Susie touched a lot of people with her unselfish and loving spirit
