Susan Speight

When I was in junior high, Susan coached me and ~10 kids on a swim team. She would train us very hard. Then we´d go to swim meets on the weekend and compete. It sort of culminated with her taking us to the State finals in Waco. I guess this went on for a couple of years. I´m so grateful for her. Anyway, Susan was a real inspiration, and at our age it was very impactful and positive. I often wondered about Susan through the years. I was disheartened to learn of her tragic passing in 2004....

Dear Stacy and your family,
I was so saddened to learn of your sister's untimely death. After reading the wonderful informative obituary, I felt like I really knew her. Carolyn

I just found out this evening (Saturday). My heart is sad to hear that such a spark has left us. God Bless you Pam ---and the rest of Susan's family. You have been special friends of mine and I know Susan is still shining that light on us...just from another 'world' now. Love you! Kathleen

Dear Speight Family,

Our hearts go out to all of you at this tragic time of your lives. Although we never got to meet Susan in person, we've known all of the Speight Family, not only through Castleberry but also through FUMC. Know that we all: Peggy Maurer, Kevin and Verena Maurer, and Echo and Walter Wilson extend our prayers to God to be with you through this time. One thing for sure, none of you can ever say that Susan didn't live and love life to the fullest.

Jack, Caroline, John, Sally, and Stacey...I was greatly saddened to learn today of Susan's tragic death. It's been a long time since you girls gave my kids swimming lessons, and since we all played volleyball at church.

Please accept my condolences.

I am a distant cousin of Helen Louise Linbeck and want to offer my sympathy to Susan's family and Pam. My heart goes out to all. Susan must have been a person to cherish . My thoughts are of you all, also.

I am so saddened this morning to learn of Susan's passing. She lived life with gusto. We all admired her for that and loved her for the dear person she was. I always knew that if you scratched the surface of Susan's sometimes tough facade, you would find only kindness and love and a passionate desire to make the world a better place. Thanks for the wonderful memories, Susan.
Bless her. And bless you, Pam.
