Not sure what to say?

May she RIP.

The years have passed since Susan died, yet I think of her often. She was a true friend who helped me through some hard times. Moreover, we shared many a laugh. She told me that as long as you,remember someone who has died they will live on.

This weekend is Hall High School's 55th reunion, and on the website I read of Susan's death and immediately teared up although we have not been friends for more than 50 years.

I'm so glad she had a happy life filled with love of family and friends, that she met her goals and enjoyed the goodness life offers which sadly was all taken...

We were so sorry to hear of the loss of the love of your life. Remembering your great love story today and always.

To Cathy, David, Dr. Alter and family, I am truly saddened by this news. I have fond memories of playing with Cathy at your house on Whetten Rd and at the artichoke. Please accept my deepest sympathies. Jill Perlman Pienkos

Elliott, Cathy & Karl, David & Abby
May memories of your wife and mother surround you and carry you through this difficult time. In my thoughts, Wanda.

I owe everything I am today to this stunning, giving, gracious woman, who, with Elliott, opened her home and heart to me - and never stopped. She will be sorely missed by family and her hundreds of friends.
Love, Gail

We will miss Susan, and also miss her devoted husband Dr. Alter coming in every afternoon to have lunch with his beloved wife! May she rest in peace. Michelle, weekend nurse at Hebrew Home.
