Sue Sharp Bryant

Sue was my preceptor in midwifery school in the winter/spring of 1998. Sue had such great spirit and excellent skills. She instilled trust and confidence to help me grow in my own midwifery skills. I use to spend nights with her mom which was also a fun experience while I waited for moms to labor. At the end of my integration I had caught 39 babies (I needed 40). It was Sunday and I had been in Lynchburg since Thursday... Sue said I was safe and cabable and one more birth wasn't going to make...

Sue delivered my son Gavin and made it such a memorable delivery. Not only was sue my Midwife but I had the pleasure of working with her at Women's Health Services and not only had a great working relationship with her but we developed a great friendship, so much that I followed her to Forest Women's Center to see her with my 2nd pregnancy after we both no longer worked at WHS. Sue had a big heart and often she gave me so much advice and I truly looked up to her as a great person. Sue grew...

Sue was my midwife for both my children, and delivered my son now almost 7. I remember while in labor with him, how she stayed right there with me the whole time. That act of kindness and passion for her job, was the core of Sue. She will be forever missed by my family. My prayers and sympathy go out to Sue's daughters and grandsons.

Julie and Amy and to the rest of the family. Sue's passing is so unexpected and she will be greatly missed. She delivered both of my children and my daughter loved playing in her office when I was pregnant with my son. My mother and I loved to bring her little goodies for all the wonderfullness that she showed to everyone. She will be remembered by my family and missed too! May god comfort you where words can't.

I was so saddened to hear of Sue's death. I got to know Sue when I worked in the Health Information Dept at Virginia Baptist for 10 years. One of my memories of her was on Halloween she would dress up as a witch and visit the different Depts. She was a good witch and you would know it was her when she spoke. She was always pleasant and very caring. It is such a great loss and I'm sorry that she lost the battle she fought so hard to beat. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

I am so sorry to hear about Sue's passing. My heart just breaks for her family. She was such a giving person, helping to deliver my baby in 2006 when she was sick with cancer. She also delivered my firstborn in 2003 and I came to respect her, not only as my midwife, but as a person. Her smile alway made me feel at ease even when a situation was uncomfortable as it often is in pregnancy. She was always willing to return my phone calls no matter what time of day and was willing to hear out...

I had the pleasure of having Sue as my midwife. I couldn't have ask for any better. She was a great person. We will miss her. God Bless her family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Amy and Julie, you don't know me - but your dear mother, Sue, was my best friend at Bedford Hills School from the 6th grade, forward, and throughout our high school years. She and I came to Bedford Hills the same year, and as two "new girls" in a class of so many old friends who were not ready to have new friends, we were so blessed to have found each other. Sue and her family were so wonderful to me - and welcomed me into their home so many times, and into so many family activities. We...

I worked with Sue in L&D since 1989 and it was always a pleasure. I learned much from Sue. She always had a great attitude and it was obvious that she loved her work. She wanted to make childbirth a wonderful experience for her patients and families. BUT, even more than she loved her work, she loved her girls, and her "boys". She lived each day with purpose and had fun in the process. I remember her talking about the annual trip to Busch Gardens. My thoughts and prayers go out to Amy...
