Susan was a wise and thoughtful lady. She was a role model for us Cal Tech graduate students in the sixties, received 2003 Cal Tech Distinguished Alumni award for her life- time achievements, and through sheer willpower, realized the American dream. I have always held her in my highest esteem. She will be dearly missed.

I always enjoyed seeing and speaking with Susan at the Head To Toe studio. Graciousness is always admirable and inspiring. Of course strength and persistence are formidable characteristics - which Susan honed well.

Dr. Susan was a wonderful gracious lady. I know she will be greatly missed by family, friends, and many work associates. I was blessed to know her for the short while that I did.

Thank you Susan for being one of the Greatest Americans
