Susan Carlson

I am so sorry to hear of Susan's passing. I knew Susan when she worked for Oakland Unified School District as a speech/language specialist, a profession that we shared. I remember her as being so pretty with a warm smile and a great sense of humor. She had a down-to-earth attitude when setting reasonable yet challenging goals for her students. She cared for them and they benefited from that concern. She was fun to work with and I am glad that I had the opportunity of knowing her so many years...

Hi Hank,

I knew Susan while attending Garfield Junior
Hill in Berkeley in the 1950s. Briefly waved
to each other at a BHS reunion in 2005. I should have engaged her in conversation, but, truth be told, I always viewed her as
one of the Berkeley Hill girls that I would
never had had a chance with during those awkward period when perceived social status
differences played an outsized role. Perhaps, in retrospect..........................


With condolences and...

Hank,
While I did not get to know Susan well, I know how much your spirits are lifted whenever you speak of her. I am sorry for your loss and send you much love.

Sue was a lovely woman inside and out.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

I knew Sue through the Piedmont Playschool when her Scott and my Liz attended. I had the sad job of informing members that the husband of one had died tragically. Sue's comment on hearing the news was so warm, heartfelt, and sympathetic -- more than anyone else's. I never forgot it, or her. She indeed was a very special person. My sympathy and prayers are with her family.
