Phil,
I was very sad to hear about Susan's passing. Susan was a wonderful friend and colleague while we were at the Illinois School together, and I have only fond memories of her.

Phil,

We were deeply saddened to read of Susan's passing. We hold fond memories of the time we spent as neighbors in Pullman. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your daughters at this difficult time.
