Diane, Tim and family of Sue Black,
My sincerest condolences. I was so saddened to hear about Suzie's passing. We were neighbors and lived down the street from your mom and dad in Northwood. We used to visit on weekend mornings and Suzie would always have a pot of coffee on...we had such great conversations. She was a wonderful person and always had a sense of humor. May God bless you and your family in this time of grief. She will always be there in your hearts.
