Not sure what to say?

I remember Susanna from when I was a student at Maplewood Heights Elementary in Renton. As a 4th grader, I was selected as the student caretaker of the salmon for the pilot of the program she developed, feeding the salmon, cleaning the tank, monitoring salmon health, and adjusting the water quality...which eventually led to my interview on CNN while we released the salmon in Honey Creek. Before this, I also remember her organizing science programs in the district, and the grey plastic crates...

Heartfelt Condolence and Prayers for Susanna family. Sweet and Beautiful cousin. Always enjoyed our corresponding on family genealogy. You will be miss.. R.I.H. Susanna. Cousin on Susanna father family line to Van Ness/Van Nest[e].

I remember Susie fondly as my sophomore roommate for a year at Agnes Scott. Always lively, always sympathetic, always ready for whatever awaited us all. My condolences to her family and close friends. Elizabeth G Guider

Susan was a wonderful mentor and friend. She was a true professional and the sweetest person. Is was an inspiration to teachers and students.

I have many memories of Susie and the girls.... Especially when they were little and playing with Mary Anne. Or we were making Christmas cookies so that one of us might be nursing so the other could bake. I remember Susie´s strategies to entice Jennifer out of temper tantrums using bribery for getting pierced ears. Or traipsing around digging plants and flowers. And ice cream for after the opera and going out for lunch or times when we went clam digging, jewelry making.... Many memories! ...

She was the closest thing I had to a big sister. I have many wonderful memories of the times I stayed with her over the weekend. I will miss her more than I can say.

I have many fond memories with the Wilsons in Georgia. I went on beach trips and spent many good times on Robin Lane. Susie was special as I did not have a sister and she was glad to be a sister to me. I remember hours of fun and cherish our time together. Loving memories of a special cousin.
