Not sure what to say?

Sue and I were inseperable during the spring-summer of 1974 We worked on films together with our Bolex 16mm cameras and I taught her how to be silly (er) we stayed in touch until we didn't. I can not remember a day that I did not think think about her. She was most gracious and thoughtful. Finding this obit was not a total shock but it ended my dream of seeing her again.

Our deepest condolences to Sue's loved ones. We were so happy to have her join our family when her mom and our dad were married in 1989. Sue lived life to the fullest and she was a wonderful person.

Had many fun times with this woman. I remember when she bought a Cris Craft ski boat, she had no idea how to launch it or drive it. With Paula and Debbie, she got into Sacramento River for the first time

I worked for several years as a DJ with Sue in the little building on Grass Valley Highway in Auburn that was the home of KAHI/KHYL.

Remember her well from her time at KHYL in Auburn. Absolutely loved her on-air style and listened every am. A legend.
