She truly was one of a kind. I have fond, sweet memories of being with her at John Carroll in the early 90's. Her humor and grace throughout her illness was remarkable. I will truly miss her. Prayers for Soo's family, Jarrett, Becky, and all the close freinds whose lives she impacted. Love you Soo!!!

So deeply saddened by her illness and her passing. She fought so bravely. I was so blessed to have been able to get back in touch with Soo thru Facebook in these last few years. She was a stellar classmate at Seton, and I will never forget her passion for writing, reading, and politics. My prayers are with your family.

I am still in shock and finding difficulty putting my thoughts into words. I do know that Sue touched so many people and was loved by all who had the honor to know her. She will be grievously missed.

So many fun years growing up and going to school with Sue. Though we didn't see or hear much of each other after college, often thought of her. So sorry to hear of her illness back in the fall, and knew she would fight as best she could. A colorful light has gone out, and our hearts and thoughts are with the family through this difficult time. Remember the best of her.

I had the pleasure of meeting Sue in elementry school at St. Val's. My fondest memory of Sue was when Footloose came out and she was so excited to see the movie and I remember she loved it so and then Back to the Future I remember her also telling us about this fantastic movie she saw. When ever I see these movies today I always think of Sue! Rest in peace friend~

We were sadden to hear of Susan's passing. She was a valiant sarcoma warrior. She fought her battle against this cruel disease with an unyielding spirit and a positive attitude. On behalf of the Pittsburgh Cure Sarcoma Committee we pass along our condolences.
