Susan was our social worker at Home Health and Hospice of Person County. She was a comfort to our patients and families (and to her co-workers). Her laugh and great smile brightened our days. I am so sorry to hear of her death. Joyce Franke

I'm deeply saddened to hear of Susan passing, she was a great person friendly to all, know one was a stranger to her! I worked with her at Burlington and I would run into her now and then, it was always a pleasure to see her. RIP my girl, you will greatly be missed by all of us.

I know Susan is so happy right now, walking with God and at peace! She was in our Bible study group and I know her beautiful soul was saved! She loved and believed in the Lord with all her heart! I am going to miss Susan more than words can say; however, I am blessed to have known her, and I know for sure I will see my friend again some day!!

I was in a long-distance discipleship class with Susan by way of Zoom for several months and we talked on the phone. Although, we never met in person I felt like I knew her well and I grew to love her across the miles. Her eyes were warm, her speech was gentle and her words were always kind. I will miss her leaning into the camera to hear more and more about Jesus. I am so glad Susan believed the Savior who knew her and forgave her long before she was even born and I am grateful He prepared a beautiful place of rest for people like her. My condolences to and heartfelt prayers for her friends, co-workers, family and especially her parents. We will miss her.

I worked with Ms. Rice. She was one of the most positive and kind hearted people I’ve met. She would bring candy to our office and fill up the container just as a kind gesture. There were times where I was having a terrible day and just talking to her would lift my spirit. She was an amazing person and will be sorely missed.
