Suzanne was my daughter´s Melissa´s mother-in- law we share the love of our grandsons. Andrew and Ryan. We always enjoyed celebrating their birthday party´s. Together. We will miss her at the special times together. RIP suzanne

My aunt Suzanne was really funny. I remember her jumping into frame saying "there's more than corn in indiana". Taken from some jingle from a local TV commercial.
