Not sure what to say?

Sue was some lady one I will always remember to be always with her children, you will be sadly missed but remembered for you great personality and the love of your children! Rest in Peace

I worked with Suzy at DGS. She was a wonderful woman with a great sense of humor. It was obvious that her children and grandchildren were her 'life'. God Bless her.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

I am very sorry to hear of Susan's death. Susan was always so vibrant, embracing life and family. My heartfelt condolences to her family, and to her beloved boxer Achilles.

It's not the number of years we live, but the memories that we leave behind that are important. Susan has left warm, loving memories for her family to embrace and share over and over again.

In loving memory,
Diane Hensel Piper

God Bless You All, I know Sue will be sadly missed by many, myself included, I always loved running into Sue, we would share everything about our children and what we were doing with our lives, it was always so hard to pull away from talking to her, seeing that there was always so much to share about our children and granchildren. She loved and was so proud of you all.
We go back alot of years, back to Midge Football in the 70's when our sons played (my son is John (Grove) Moore) and she...

I. too, graduated from Cedar Cliff in 1962. I did not know Sue well, but on the first day of our senior year she said to me "Let's go in the girl's room" otherwise known as the bathroom. She told me that I had been "checked out" and led me back out to the hall and introduced me to Ron Smee who would become my husband in 1963. We were married for 31 years. I will always remember that day. I am so sorry for your loss, but from the beautifully written obituary she must have had wonderful...

I worked with Susan in DGS for many years and she was always the light that kept us going during difficult times. During the time I was undergoing chemo treatments and had to prepare for my sessions and was slow getting started, Susan would say, 'Oh my God, Mary, where is the thing,' and she would proceed to prepare me with the humor and caring that only she could do. Love you Susan, and God speed in your new life.

To you

I knw Suzi from her days at Paradise Alley. I had just lost my job and Suzi believed in me and hired me having never waitressed before. She was not only fun, but very kind. Her son Jeff was my favorite busboy. I miss those days and send my sincere condolences to the family.

My brother, Jim, cousin, Tom and I lived next to the Mumma's grandparents in Lemoyne. The girls visited frequently and we became friends although, with the exception of Debbie, they were a bit older then us. We even visited them in New Cumberland when our parents allowed us to travel in Mr. Mumma's Model A Ford. I ran into Suzi at the Mag Men's reunion concert a couple years. What a treat after all those years. She was just as vigorous as I recall. Take comfort knowing she's in good...
