Susan Harvey Rhoades

I was thinking back on my childhood, as far back as 1969, when Susan was appointed to be my big sister during difficult times in my teen years, I can remember her being a role model in my life at that time, who I looked up too, we had fun times.and many laughs when I was in her company, I can recall her taking me on car rides to her parents home, and also to go see horses, it saddens me to see that she has passed, as I looked her up to thank her for the impact she had in my life as a teen,...

Very few people are allowed into our weird little worlds. You are a STAR in mine. Thank you for your counsel, friendship and love. Always in my heart, Precious....!

Steve, Laura, and Stephanie,

Sue touched our family in 03 ways through VARIG, as both Julie and I knew and worked with her for many years, and my mother met her at a Trade Show in the Wilkes-Barre area, doing her VARIG thing.

Sue was always fun, and her laugh was unmistakeable. I have pictures that I will send to you from the VARIG reunion in NYC a few years ago, that I know you will enjoy seeing.

With our Sincere Sympathy,

Dearest Steve, Laura and Stephie,
It is hard to believe that her energy, laughter,love for life and care for others, will not be touched by all those who had yet to meet her.
Sweet Laura and Stephie, you have in you all of her and this gift will be in your souls forever to share with others.
I will never forget our laughs while we rushed through Greece for...the weekend or the glimmer in her eyes when she was asked why she wore two different kinds of earings!
The trip we took...

Steve, Laura & Stephanie,
Even though we haven't seen you guys for a while, you were never far from our hearts. This was quite a shock and one that is never expected. nancy and I will be at the service this weekend and hope to see yu again. Once again our condolences.

Dear Stephen , Laura and Stephanie,
We are so sorry for your loss. Susan, our FLUFFY, was always so full of life and for that reason it is difficult to believe that she is no longer with us.
You always knew Susan's presence was in the room because of her hearty laughter. There was always a smile on her face.
A very special Susan moment occured during one of Varig's sales meeting in Recife.The meeting was held during the THANKSGIVING holiday and it was then that Susan taught the...

Dear Family & Friends of Sue,
My deepest sympathy in the sudden lose of your wife, mom, and our wonderful VARIG colleague. Sue was one of the happiest and most positive friend I have known. She was always 'up.' I have some wonderful memories of her laughter and humor on life. She has enriched a huge circle of humanity, and we are all the better for knowing Sue. She will be missed. Robert Neuman

Dear Stephen, Laura & Stephanie,

It was with heartfelt sadness that I learned of Sue’s passing. I had the privilege of working with your wife/mom at VARIG for many years. I don’t remember the year, but once we actually flew all together to RIO. I was the one that was playing GAMEBOY on the plane. We arrived in RIO and went outside for a walk on Copacabana. The first thing Sue did was to gather about 10 street kids and feed them at one of the outdoor restaurants. She then sent...

My Dear Friends:
I am so sorry for your loss. I met Sue while working for VARIG, and she was always very pleasant. My sincere condolences.
