Not sure what to say?

I worked with Sue at PIMC when I was a student during my summer externship. We worked on the Breastfeeding data, which later was presented at conferences. We both knew the importance of breastfeeding. I'm happy to see that her work is implemented still. Sue gave encouragement to me while I completed my Acupuncture and Herbal studies and again while studying for the National Boards...I'm shocked to learn of her passing. Sue, you're a beautiful soul.

She was truly a blessing to our family ... May You Forever Rest In Paradise Sue

We are very sad to hear of your passing. I am very thankful to have had you enter our lives when Marc & I first became parents. You taught us so much and for that I will always be blessed to have known you. You and your words of encouragement, smile, and kindness will always be in our hearts and memory. I will miss our visits so very much. Rest in peace my friend Sue.

Sue's sunny humor and personality will be missed at USBC meetings and conferences. Her dedication to supporting breastfeeding within IHS is legendary, and I'm deeply saddened to hear of her death. Peace.

I am saddened to hear of Sue's passing. I worked with her at PIMC and learned a lot from her. She was vigilant in encouraging young mothers to breastfeed. I have fond memories of her sessions in the evenings to teach the expectant moms the importance of breastfeeding for the health of the children of Indian families. Sue was always smiling and genuinely cared for her co-workers and patients. God Speed Sue.
