Suzanne Jane Rivera

To Suzanne and to the family of Suzanne - I still see her pink ribbon in the Sky as she races in Heaven. Yes, you are not forgotten and I will pedal for you.

Suzanne, you are remembered by even those who barely knew you....as you pedaled by on your bike with veracity and a pink ribbon. I knew from a distance, you were a lovely power house and I admired you immediately. My thoughts are still with your family, and your cycling community will never forget.

I had the pleasure of knowing Suzanne for several years because our sons were school friends. She quickly became my friend. What an amazing spirit she had. She was so cheerful and energetic. When I was around her, I felt uplifted...joyful. Im so glad I was fortunate enough to call her friend.

I don't know how to begin this, exactly. But I have thought of your wife, mother, daughter and sister many times. I lost a letter she wrote me years back telling me of her marriage and that she was moving to Fresno. I didn't know how to find her, and although I knew what city she lived in down in So Cal, I couldn't remember how to find the house. It is only tonight that I am deeply saddened that I didn't find her before this moment. Suzanne was my best friend at Long Beach State and times...

My heart breaks over the loss of Suzanne. Always smiling, helpful and kind. I am praying for strength and peace for the family especially my long time friend Ann.

Dearest Anne and family words are inadequate to express how deeply sorry we feel for your loss.

Our thoughts are with you.

Scott and family our deepest condolences on your loss.
